KTM has officially confirmed that Johann Zarco will race for its factory MotoGP team in 2019 and 2020.
The Frenchman has been a revelation since joining MotoGP with Monster Yamaha Tech3 at the start of last season – scoring four podiums, three pole positions, regularly leading races and twice getting within a fraction of a first ever satellite Yamaha MotoGP win.
Although Tech3 is confirmed as switching to KTM in 2019, Herve Poncharal knew he had only a very slim chance of retaining Zarco – openly stating that the 27-year-old deserved to ride for an official team.
My career will continue where everything begins, from RedBull Rookies Cup to the conquest of the MotoGP title. You understand it, I join in completing its 2019 rider-up.
