Trackhouse Racing MotoGP

Trackhouse Racing MotoGP is the American satellite squad that joined the MotoGP grid in 2023, bringing a fresh, data-driven approach to the premier class of motorcycle racing. Founded by lifelong motorsports enthusiast Mattias Ekström and backed by NASCAR Cup legend Tony Stewart, the team fields Aprilia machinery and competes under the distinctive American flag livery. Despite being a newcomer, Trackhouse quickly established itself as a competitive force, leveraging advanced analytics and a close partnership with Aprilia Racing to close the gap to the factory squads. The team’s arrival marked the first full-time American presence in MotoGP since Kenny Roberts Jr.’s era, injecting new energy into the paddock.

Trackhouse Racing MotoGP enters the 2025 season with its core duo of riders intact and a renewed focus on consistency after a challenging but promising 2024 campaign. The team, now in its third season, has steadily improved its race-day execution and qualifying pace, though it continues to chase its first podium in the premier class. Early-season results in 2025 have shown flashes of speed, particularly in sprint races, but mid-field battles remain the norm. With Aprilia’s latest bike updates expected mid-season, Trackhouse is targeting a top-10 finish in the constructors’ championship as a stepping stone toward future contention.
