KTM have signed Alex Marquez of Spain and Italy's Fabio Di Giannantonio on multi-year deals from 2027, the team said on Monday.
Marquez, 30, was runner-up in the 2025 MotoGP championship. He will leave Gresini Racing after four seasons and return to a factory team for the first time since his rookie campaign with Honda in 2020.
"Alex brings not only outstanding skill and race intelligence but also determination and a winning mindset that perfectly matches our DNA," KTM Motorsports Director Pit Beirer said in a statement.
Fabio Di Giannantonio, 27, is currently third in the MotoGP championship standings. He will leave VR46 at the end of the season after joining the team in 2024, having claimed his second career MotoGP win in Barcelona this season.
"Fabio has clearly made a step to become one of the consistent front-running guys in MotoGP. We cannot question his speed and commitment to delivering the best performance," Beirer said.
