American Racing Team unveil 2020 Moto2™ livery

There’s a brand-new design for the 2020 season as Joe Roberts welcomes rookie Marcos Ramirez into the garage alongside him

American Racing Team have officially kicked off their 2020 Moto2™ World Championship campaign after unveiling a brand-new livery ahead of the first Official Test in Jerez.

America’s Joe Roberts remains with the team for 2020 and will embark upon his third season in the intermediate class. The Californian will look to consistently fight inside the top 15 after a challenging 2019.

Roberts is this year alongside rookie Marcos Ramirez, after the Spaniard finished the 2019 Moto3™ World Championship third in the standings. The 22-year-old battled to career first victories at the Circuit de Barcelona – Catalunya and at Silverstone in 2019 and will now fight for the Rookie of the Year crown this season.

In 2020, the American Racing Team switch across from KTM chassis to Kalex and will also have former MotoGP™ rider, and MotoGP™ Podcast regular, John Hopkins in the garage as a rider coach.
