KTM SIGN FRANCESCO GUIDOTTI AS NEW TEAM MANAGER


THE ITALIAN HAS COMPLETED THE SHOCK SWITCH FROM THE PRAMAC RACING SQUAD,
FOLLOWING THE DEPARTURE OF MIKE LEITNER

Tags MotoGP, 2022, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing

Red Bull KTM Factory Racing have announced the signing of Francesco Guidotti as
new Team Manager. The Italian has made the shock switch across from Pramac
Racing and will replace Mike Leitner, who was relieved of his duties last week.

The 49-year old Italian from Tuscany oversaw KTM’s Grand Prix entry in the old
125 and 250cc divisions for four years and then departed the world championship
for a successful two-season stint in WorldSBK. For the last decade, he has been
in control of Pramac Racing, helping the satellite squad to the Independent
Team, Independent Rider and Rookie of the Year title in a remarkable 2021.

Francesco Guidotti: “I was a team manager for KTM from 2006-2009 and then took
some valuable experience in another series before coming back to MotoGP. Now I
am able to complete the circle! KTM have always been very ambitious and hungry
with their racing programs and we can see that MotoGP is no different; it is
incredible what they have achieved in such a short time and there is still much
we can do. I’m very happy to be back and part of this big push for more
success.”

Pit Beirer, KTM Motorsports Director: “It’s a pleasure to have Francesco back
with us and someone who knows our culture and way to go racing at KTM. We wanted
to refreshen the MotoGP management structure and we feel that his input and
ideas will give us some new momentum for our sixth season on the grid. With
people like Francesco, Fabiano Sterlacchini, Hervé Poncharal, Jens Hainbach and
Aki Ajo we know we have the best leadership to help us move ahead and make more
MotoGP milestones for the company.”
