Man, KTM is catching another break, which makes its 500th break in the last two years, as after a much-publicized will-they/won't-they between KTM and its satellite MotoGP team, Tech3 Racing, the latter announced it would maintain its relationship with the engine supplier. And, folks, it was seriously touch-and-go there for a second, along with being catastrophic for its MotoGP future.
Now, I say this as since KTM's insolvency and subsequent saving, the looming question over the brand's head is whether or not it would stay in MotoGP. Top-tier racing is consistently a loss-leader, so long as you look at it from a financial point of view—no amount of sponsorship can amortize the cost of racing R&D. And the brand's insolvency managers made no mistake when they said that KTM would be leaving the sport, as the financial burden was too great.
