Tech3

Tech3 is a motorcycle racing team competing in the MotoGP World Championship under the name Red Bull KTM Tech3 in the MotoGP and Moto3 categories.

The team was founded in 1990 by ex-racer Hervé Poncharal, engineer Guy Coulon, and Bernard Martignac, and began racing in the 250 cc class using Honda and Suzuki motorcycles.

In the 1999 season, the team partnered with Yamaha for the factory team.

In the 2000 season, their riders Olivier Jacque and Shinya Nakano placed first and second respectively in the 250 world championship.

In the 2001 season the team moved the whole operation to the premier class, again with Yamaha, Jacque, and Nakano on the YZR500, though their status changed to that of satellite team through to the present.

Towards the end of the 2002 season, the team was given use of the YZR-M1.

In the 2006 season and 2007 season, the team used Dunlop tyres, but returned to Michelin in 2008.

In the 2008 season, their squad was two-time and reigning Superbike World Champion James Toseland partnered with two-time Superbike World Champion Colin Edwards.
