This year Red Bull KTM are pulling no punches for the upcoming MXGP season! They are going to be going with five riders, two of which are defending World Champions!

Obiously Antonio Cairoli will be at the forefront, nobody can argue his pedigree, not one bit as the current MXGP Champion and multi multi time most winningest rider to throw a leg over a KTM. Alongside him is arguably a rider who is going to prove Cairolis biggest threat this season, Jeffrey Herlings "The Bullet". US fans will know that name by now as he tore apart the field last season and defeated ALL of the riders in one of the best displays of riding of the outdoor season! That's some serious intent by KTM! In case you have forgotten how Cairoli rides... check out this GoPro from last season!

In the 250 MX2 class Pauls Jonass will defend his 2017 World Championship alongside Glenn Coldenhoff and Jorge Prado which rounds off the fill five man roster.

It's important to remember KTM have dominated the MX2 class for years now, with wins from familiar names such as Marvin Musquin and Ken Roczen amongst the also familiar names in the MXGP KTM Team Cairoli and Herlings.
