Tweet

The Marc VDS Racing Team is pleased to announce that Monster Energy will power their assault on the Moto2 and Moto3 World Championships this season.

This agreement will see Monster Energy branding feature prominently on the Kalex Moto2 machines of title favourites, Tito Rabat and Mika Kallio, as well as on the Kalex-KTM bike of the team’s sole Moto3 rider, Livio Loi.

In addition, all three riders will display Monster Energy branding prominently on helmets and leathers during 2014.

“Obviously I’m very happy that we’re able to announce this partnership with Monster Energy,” declared Team Principal Michael Bartholemy. “To have attracted a partner of Monster Energy’s standing is a reflection of just how far the Marc VDS Racing Team has progressed since we arrived in the paddock four years ago. This year we go into the new season with our sights set firmly on the Moto2 World Championship title, powered by a hugely committed partner in Monster Energy. Qualifying in Qatar has gone well, with Tito on pole position and Mika on the second row, and now we’re ready to race!”

Mitch Covington, Vice President of Sports Marketing for Monster Energy added: “Monster is really happy to have partnered with the Marc VDS Racing Team. There is no question how serious a racing outfit they are and we look forward to supporting them in their bid for even more success through the Moto2 and Moto3 Championships. In addition to the great people and racing ethic the team has cultivated, we are excited about working with the exceptional talent that is Mika, Tito and Livio who each have the chance to achieve great things.”

Yamaha Factory Racing Looks to the Future with Monster Energy Partnership

Tweet

Yamaha Factory Racing is delighted to announce a Sponsorship and Partnership agreement with the Monster Energy Company (MEC) for 2013 and 2014. As a result of this agreement Monster Energy branding will be visible on the Yamaha YZR-M1s and racing leathers of Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi as well as on all team clothing and all team equipment. 

Reigning MotoGP World Champion Lorenzo has a personal engagement with Monster Energy and Yamaha included in the agreement. Valentino Rossi’s personal agreement with Monster Energy will be complementary to the agreement between Yamaha Factory Racing and MEC. 

The agreement between the satellite Monster Energy Yamaha Tech3 team and Monster Energy will remain unchanged and is unaffected by the Yamaha – MEC agreement.

Lin Jarvis - Managing Director, Yamaha Motor Racing

“We are very happy to be able to announce the start of a new chapter in the Yamaha – Monster Energy partnership. Monster Energy is already a major partner to Yamaha’s top global sports activities in many domestic and international racing activities around the world in Motocross, Supercross, Endurance and Superbike disciplines. They have also been the title sponsor of the Monster Energy Tech 3 Yamaha team for the past 4 years. The expansion to include the Yamaha Factory Racing MotoGP Team is a logical and prestigious expansion of the program. 

This completion of the program permits Yamaha and Monster Energy to work even closer together to develop their sports marketing programs and to develop rider talent to continue to be successful into the future in all areas of motorcycle racing. For the Yamaha Factory Racing Team this new partnership will bring even more ‘energy’ into our racing program and Monster Energy will be a great supporter to further promote our Team and our riders' performances around the world.”
