After signing the Australian to a two-year agreement, KTM has revealed that three-time MotoGP race winner Jack Miller has hopped on board the factory racing team next season. Miguel Oliveira will be replaced by Jack Miller, who has been linked with a transfer to KTM since the French MotoGP at Le Mans. Links to KTM got stronger in recent weeks as it became evident that Ducati was looking to replace Miller in its factory team.
Miller will now switch to his third manufacturer since his MotoGP debut back in 2015 with Honda, after spending the previous five seasons, including the current 2022 season, with Ducati. Miller's move to KTM will also reconnect him with Francesco Guidotti, who took over as Red Bull Factory Racing Team Manager earlier this year after leaving Pramac Ducati. "Having Jack alongside Brad in our team means we have another strong asset," said Guidotti in a report published by CRASH. "I know him well, I know how he likes to work and what he can bring to the box.” Guidotti concluded, "I believe his character and the way he will ride and push our KTM RC16 will help us a lot at this stage of our project.”
