While the Tech 3 MotoGP effort has been well-funded due to the team's association with energy drink brand Monster Energy, the team's Moto2 bikes have been relatively unadorned. With the departure of Belgian rider Xavier Simeon, and the loss of backing from Belgian TV station RTL, Tech 3's Moto2 effort looked to go with little backing for 2013.
Fortunately for Tech 3, care home group MMCG has stepped up to the plate, and will support the Tech 3 Moto2 effort as title sponsor for 2013. The MMCG group is based in Britain, and with a strong British contingent in Tech 3, a tie up was a logical step for MMCG. MMCG already had previously backed James Toseland when the British rider was with Tech 3, and as Toseland's former manager Roger Burnett is also the manager of Danny Kent, Tech 3's British Moto2 rider, the move to sponsoring the team was small.
Below is the press release issued by Tech 3 on the deal:
Tech 3 Racing confirms MMCG as title sponsor for Moto2 challenge
The Tech 3 Racing Team is delighted to confirm it has reached an agreement with leading UK care home group MMCG to be its title sponsor for the 2013 Moto2 World Championship campaign.
