KTM have pushed back on suggestions they could sell GASGAS, after deciding to pull the Spanish brand from its MotoGP project in 2025.

Nextౠ season KTM will become a full factory outfit with all four of it's bikes.

Thus mean꧒ing Enea Bastianini and Maverick Vinales, both of whom will ride for Tech 3, will essentially be factory riders like Brad Binder and Pedro Acosta. 

GASGAS have been scrapped𝔉 from the MotoGP project, as has♛ Husqvarna in Motocross.

But speaking to , Executive board member at Pierer Mobility, Hubert Trunkenpolz said this about both: "Both rumours have absolutely ꦉno basis or foundation, that's total nonsense. 

"I wouldཧ prefer not to even comment on baseless reportsꦏ or messages like this."

KTM's 2025 MotoGP line-up will be the strongesꦿt they've ever had.

2024 has s❀o far not gone according to plan as they remain without a graꦆnd prix or sprint win.

But the RC16 is a bike that remains competitive and will have three race winners aboard it next season, along wit♛h rookie sensation Acost🐻a.  

Trunkenpolz added: "We already made a first clarification after the Mugello GP by announcing four riders with KTM in M✨otoGP for 2025 - Binder, Acosta, Bastianini and Vinales. 

"Th⭕is should be the strongest MotoGP line-up we ever had. We also decided to reach out to the younger riders a🦹nd new generation with our GASGAS brand in the future. 

"Ab൲out Huskvarna. This brand has a great reputation also in the US, so it would be crazy to leave off-road sports completely. 

"With this brand economic en♛vironment we decided to focus all brands according to the worldwide economic situation."
