Overview
- Tech3 officially confirmed Senna Agius will step up from Moto2 to MotoGP for 2027, with the announcement released on Wednesday, September 16, 2026.
- The team says Agius was chosen for his speed, maturity and work ethic and will be paired with Luca Marini to combine experience and young talent in bike development; Tech3 did not disclose the contract length.
- Agius’s signing fills the final slot on next season’s 22-rider entry list and leaves Honda’s internal decision over David Alonso and Diogo Moreira as the last unresolved seat.
- Agius arrives with strong Moto2 form, multiple grand prix wins and a top-four standing in 2026 after rising through the Moto2 European Championship, which teams cite as proof of his readiness.
- Riders moving up from Moto2 may gain an adaptation edge next year because MotoGP will use smaller 850cc engines and Pirelli tyres, a shift that could speed rookies’ learning curve and shape team development plans ahead of collective tests.
