Ai Ogura and Sergio Garcia will form the rider line-up of new Moto2 squad MT Helmets-MSI for the 2024 season after the team purchased the assets of Pons Racing.

MT Helmets-MSI took over Pons’ team after team owner Sito Pons elected to shutter his historic operation after missing out on a chance to re-join the MotoGP field, the new organisation, which currently competes in the Moto3 world championship, originally keen to bring lightweight class rider Diogo Moreira into the series before he elected to join Italtrans in Moto2 instead.

The outfit, which competes in Moto3 with Honda machinery, announced on Friday that Ogura, who currently competes for the Honda Team Asia squad as a Honda-contracted rider, will be joined for its maiden intermediate class campaign by Garcia, who will remain with the team having competed with Pons in 2023.

Ogura will remain contracted to Honda despite switching away from the team linked closely to the Japanese marque, Ogura the next in line to join its premier class program when he is ready.
