Overview
- Tech3 confirmed the signing on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, naming Senna Agius as Luca Marini’s team-mate for the 2027 MotoGP season.
- Agius steps up from Moto2 after multiple wins and a Moto2 European Championship title, and his selection has been linked to MotoGP’s new Adelaide round and the value of an Australian rider on the grid.
- The team announced the move only for the 2027 season and did not disclose any contract length beyond that year, with Tech3 boss Guenther Steiner praising Agius’s speed, maturity and work ethic.
- The signing completes the widely projected 2027 rider line-up and caps a large rookie intake that removes several current race winners from projected seats on next year’s grid.
- The only remaining allocation question concerns Honda, which has signed both Diogo Moreira and David Alonso but has not decided who will take each factory or LCR seat for 2027.
