Maria Mallaband Care Group Sponsors Tech 3 Racing Team

The Tech 3 Racing Team has confirmed it has reached an agreement with leading UK care home group Maria Mallaband Care Group (MMCG) to be its title sponsor for the 2013 Moto2 World Championship campaign.

MMCG will support the Tech 3 Team’s exciting new rider line-up this season of rising British star Danny Kent and highly rated French rider Louis Rossi.

The new 2013 livery, which will proudly showcase the MMCG logo, will be unveiled for the first time when Kent and Rossi resume pre-season preparations during the IRTA tests in Jerez on March 17.

Hervé Poncharal, Team Manager, said: “It is a great pleasure for me to announce that MMCG will be the title sponsor of the Tech 3 Racing Moto2 project in 2013. I have known Phil for some time because of his association with our former MotoGP rider James Toseland, and I am sure our new partnership will be a successful one.”

Phil Burgan, Maria Mallaband Care Group CEO, added: “It is a privilege for the MMCG brand to be associated with the Tech 3 Racing Moto2 Team for 2013. The opportunity for MMCG to be marketed alongside the success of Tech 3 is an opportunity we couldn’t turn down. Motorcycle sport may be far removed from the day-to-day business of caring, however the brand exposure that we can experience by being aligned with such a high profile and professional set-up like Tech 3 provides a perfect marketing platform for MMCG.  I believe in Danny Kent and Louis Rossi that Tech 3 Racing has put together a young and tremendously talented line-up for 2013, and I have no doubt that together we can enjoy a successful season.”
