Vialle: Four More
Years With KTM
T
he current FIM MX2 World Champion, Tom Vialle,
signed a four-year contract extension with his Red
Bull KTM Factory Racing Team.
The plan for the young Frenchman is to compete
one more full season in the MX2 class in 2022 and
then move up to the MXGP class in 2023.
Vialle is currently fourth in the MX2 Championship
after suffering a broken hand earlier in the season.
"It was an easy decision," said Vialle. "KTM is my
first team! They were the first people who believed in me, so I am very grateful."
Robert Jonas, VP of Motorsports Off-Road, said, "When Tom came into the Red Bull KTM team he
was given the opportunity to show what he could do and he worked hard, listened, learned and deliv-
ered. I think he is a shining example to any youngster wanting to follow the same path."
