Oriol Oliver #83 | MXGP
“ I am really happy to stay with Gabriel SS24, and I have the opportunity to ride on the KTM 450 SX-F. It is a new chapter, I am motivated to do my best with a great group of people around me. Even though last year I was not consistent throughout the season I showed some good things and I achieved some top 5 results, which I hope to build on this year. Now the focus is on the pre season races and gaining experience with the 450.»
Gyan Doensen #573 | EMX250
“ I am beyond excited to continue my journey with KTM aswell as my time at Gabriel SS24 Factory Juniors! Same category, same team, different goal and mindset. Unfortunately I couldn’t finish last season as we liked, and with that I missed a lot of bike time. I’m super motivated to work my butt off this year and be 110% for the 2026 season!”
Shaun Simpson | Team manager
“2026 has a lot of potential with two great riders both working hard to achieve new goals. It’s great to be working with riders we already have experience with from last season and we know what we can work on behind the scenes to get the comfort and confidence the team riders need to reach their full potential. Gyan will enter his second season in EMX250 class and he is ready to make the next step. Oriol is ready to mix it up with the Factory boys in the MXGP class and I’m sure with his style and technique he can surprise a few people this year. I would like to say a big thank you to KTM for their support during difficult times, always planning for the future and not giving up on being ‘READY TO RACE’ We have many great personal sponsors and partners that make this possible so I’d like to thank them for their support, and we will make sure we give it our maximum effort. Finally, without Simon Gabriel this would not be possible so a big thanks to him for his trust in myself to keep things moving forward. “
