The KTM Sarholz Racing Team will continue to rely on talented German rider Noah Ludwig in the 2026 season. The 21-year-old motocross racer from Aschersleben has extended his commitment to the Westerwald-based team and is now entering his fourth season with them.

Ludwig, regarded as one of the top prospects in German motocross, will once again compete in the ADAC MX Masters as well as in selected rounds of the Motocross World Championship, just as he has in previous years.

“Noah has continuously developed with us and proven that he has the potential for top results,” explained Andre Sarholz of the KTM Sarholz Racing Team. “In the coming year, we want to be fighting at the front more consistently in the ADAC MX Masters and see him take the next steps in his development at the World Championship level.”

The focus for the 2026 season is clearly on consistency and top results. While Ludwig is expected to battle for podium finishes on the national stage, the international races will primarily be about gaining valuable experience and World Championship points.
