2 more years. And straight back on the podium. ๐๐ฅ
After finishing 3rd in the 2025 Moto2 World Championship with 7 podiums, @barrybaltus7 and @redsracingteam are continuing their journey together for the 2027 and 2028 Moto2 seasons. This was celebrated in style with a P3 finish for Barry at Misano last weekend. ๐ฅ
@cresta.thesportsfirm worked alongside @Zeloshomeofsports on the REDS deal and on the wider framework supporting Barryโs continued progression in Moto2. Our role in motorsport goes well beyond one agreement: we work across the relationships and structures that allow a driverโs career to move forward, with a deep understanding of how the paddock works.
Congratulations Barry and Zelos. Full throttle for what comes next! ๐๏ธ๐จ
