Gresini Racing has officially announced a partnership with BK8 News as their new title sponsor for the 2025 season. This deal will last for two years and will cover both the 2025 and 2026 MotoGP seasons. With this sponsorship, the team will now be known as BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP.

BK8 News is a sports news platform, but it originates from BK8, a well-known sports betting company. BK8 has also been involved in European sponsorships before, as they had partnered with football clubs like Aston Villa and Norwich City. However, Norwich ended their deal in 2021 after a controversy over the company’s marketing content.

An Interesting Partnership

Carlo Merlini, Gresini Racing’s commercial and marketing director, shared his excitement about the sponsorship:

“I am thrilled to announce this partnership for the Gresini Racing MotoGP Team. MotoGP is an incredible platform that brings adrenaline, speed, and excitement. It’s a fantastic opportunity for brands to gain worldwide exposure, and Gresini Racing is among the best teams in the sport.

“It’s no surprise that BK8 News has chosen Gresini Racing and MotoGP as their flagship project. I want to thank everyone at BK8 News for their hard work in making this happen. I can’t wait to see our team in new colors and start this new journey together.” he said in report.

BK8 News Looks Forward to Success

Michael Gatt, the managing director of BK8 News, also shared his enthusiasm:

“We are excited to team up with Gresini Racing. This partnership marks a big step in our growth. It shows our commitment to performance, precision, and excellence.

“By working with a top racing team, we are establishing our presence in one of the most famous motorsport events in the world. Together, we will drive Gresini Racing’s success and bring fans closer to the action with exclusive insights and behind-the-scenes content.” he said in report.

What’s Next?

With Spanish riders like Alex Marquez and Fermin Aldeguer set to be part of the Gresini Racing lineup in 2025, the team is ready to make an impact with their new identity. Fans can also look forward to an exciting season filled with high-speed action, fresh team colors, and a strong new partnership.
