MotoGP: Tech3, new era begins: Günther Steiner's first public appearance

Günther Steiner couldn't miss the MotoGP 2026 season presentation event, which will be held on Saturday, February 7th, in Kuala Lumpur. It's going to be a big show, preceded by the opening party scheduled for tonight at the Permata Sapura Tower located in the center of the Malaysian city.

This is the location chosen by the Tech3 team's new CEO for his first public appearance with the team. A photo published by KTM's satellite team in its social media profiles depicts Steiner posing next to Maverick Vinales' RC16, accompanied by the Spanish rider, his teammate Enea Bastianini, and Team Manager Nicolas Goyon.

This marks the beginning of a new era for the historic team principal of the Haas Formula 1 team and for the team founded by Hervé Poncharal, which earlier this year became the property of a consortium of investors led by Steiner. Another member of the Formula 1 world, Pierre Gasly, current driver for the Alpine team, is also part of this consortium.
