Guenther Steiner Explains MotoGP's Fixed-Fee Decision

Guenther Steiner, CEO of Tech3, has clarified why MotoGP's current fixed-fee arrangement with manufacturers will persist through the new 2027-2031 commercial contract. Despite pressure from all five bike brands—Ducati, Aprilia, KTM, Honda, and Yamaha—for a share of championship profits, the MotoGP Sports Entertainment Group has maintained the existing structure. lebandit.lat

The recently agreed commercial contract between MotoGP SEG and manufacturers preserves the fixed-fee model, which appears to satisfy both parties despite the manufacturers' initial push for profit sharing. This arrangement will govern commercial terms for the next five years of MotoGP competition.
