Michael Laverty’s MLav Racing team has announced its rider line-up for the🐬 2025 Moto3 World Championship.

The ℱteam has signed Marcos Uriarte for next season’s Moto3 campaign, the young Spaniard st💟epping up from the JuniorGP series to replace Scott Ogden, who has moved to the CIP team for 2025.

Uriarte competed in the JuniorGP series in 2024 for the CFMoto Aspar🍸 Team, which signed former Moto3 rac𒆙e winner Dennis Foggia and Marc Marquez’s protege Max Quiles to its World Championship team for 2025.

The Spaniard scored fi🎃ve podiums from 12 races in JuniorGP last season — although none of those were wins — on hi🃏s way to fifth in the championship.

Unusually for a 2020s Moto3 rookie, Uriarte didn’t race the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup in 2024, and never 🃏has done.

The Spaniard also contested one wildcard round in the World Championship this year at the season-ending Sol🐓idarity Grand Prix of Barcelona, where he was last of the 25 classified finishers on his Aspar CFMoto ꦅmachine.

Although Laverty’s team has often been se𝔍en as one with a goal similar to the old British Talent Team, that of bringing primarily t♔alented British riders to the World Championship, Uriarte is not the first non-British rider to get a spot on the squad, after the Argentinian Marco Morelli raced for MLav in the European Talent Cup last year.

That said, it is Eddie O’Shea, who replaced Josh Wha🧸tley in the fina🍨l five races of the 2024 season, who partners Uriarte next season, ensuring the continuation of that path to Grand Prix racing for talented British riders.
