The Red Bull KTM Ajo team and the KTM GP Academy are excited. To welcome 22-year old Remy Gardner in their Moto2 line-up for the 2021 FIM World Championship.
The Australian will attempt his sixth term in the category with the full backing of Red Bull and the Ajo Motorsport crew. As he continues to make strides at Grand Prix level.
Gardner has almost 100 Grands Prix of experience despite his young age and across a spread of machinery in Moto3 and Moto2.
Remy is a lively, fast and spectacular presence in the intermediate category since 2016. And made the breakthrough to be a podium challenger in 2019 when he grasped his first trophy in Argentina.
He has already climbed the rostrum in 2020 – at the Grand Prix of Styria. And has notched two Pole Positions as he progresses with his education at the highest level.
Already renowned for his all-out riding style and dedication. Gardner now joins Aki Ajo’s knowledgeable and proven set-up.
And under the watchful gaze of the KTM GP Academy that has promoted two riders to the MotoGP structure in the last two seasons.
Aki Ajo has overseen two Moto2 world championship title and two runner-up distinctions in the previous six years. Helping in the development of current Red Bull KTM racers Miguel Oliveira and Brad Binder.
