KTM Thanks Jeffrey Herlings J effrey Herlings' time at KTM has officially ended. The Red Bull Factory KTM team thanked Herlings for their time together. Her- lings is expected to join the Honda HRC MXGP program for 2026. Herlings has only ridden for KTM since turning pro in 2010 and has amassed five World Championships and 112 Grand Prix victories. "It was a big pleasure to watch a generational talent like this boy grow and de- velop with us," said Pit Beirer, KTM Motorsports director. "Jeffrey always did things his own way, but we've hardly ever seen a racer work as hard and be so determined. There were highs and lows in this long 16-year journey for both of us, but Jeffrey is unique, and I'm happy that our Red Bull KTM orange was such a strong part in his story." "Thanks to Jeffrey for all the wins, the titles, and years and years of dedication," said Robert Jonas, KTM's director of off-road racing. "Jeffrey only ever had one goal, and to make that target every time after setbacks says a lot for his character and also for the connection he had with the team. We've had an incredible run together and we'll always have a special history." CN WIND IN THE P46 KTM released a statement thanking Jeffrey Herlings for their 15-year relationship. He is expected to join the Honda HRC MXGP team.
