2025 is the eighth season of action for the R&G Moto4 British Cup, which is now established as the sole British Moto3™ class in partnership with MSVR. A Cup for riders and teams, competitors are between 14 and 17 and race around the UK, alongside the British Superbike Championship and with a highlight alongside MotoGP™ at the British GP. Each R&G Moto4 British Cup round comprises two races, with the points system mirroring that of MotoGP.
Each season there is the opportunity for promotion on the Road to MotoGP. The championship into which the selected rider is promoted is decided after studying the field throughout the year, in order to provide the opportunity that is the best fit for the chosen rider. The options are either the Moto4 European Cup, Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup or FIM MotoJunior™ World Championship.
Former R&G Moto4 British Cup riders have already joined the Junior Talent Team, graduated to other teams in Moto3 Junior and are now taking on the world stage in Moto3.
For more than two decades, MotoGP has invested in opening the doors to motorcycle racing, creating the Road to MotoGP. Comprising initiatives all over the world providing millions of young riders the opportunity to excel, the Road to MotoGP is unrivalled in motorsport – opening doors, increasing access and racing towards global equality.
The R&G Moto4 British Cup began in 2018 as a competition for riders, racing on identical, R&G Moto4 British Cup-liveried Honda NSF250Rs alongside BSB, WorldSBK and MotoGP™ events. From 2020, an agreement with British Championship promoter and organiser MotorSport Vision Racing (MSVR) saw the Cup expand and become the sole British Moto3™ class.
The R&G Moto4 British Cup provides an opportunity for riders racing in the British Isles to learn on the Road to MotoGP™. Riders and teams can now enter the R&G Moto4 British Cup and the blueprint for the regulations is the Moto4 European Cup in the MotoJunior paddock, which also races with Hondas.
The R&G Moto4 British Cup is run by MSVR in collaboration with MotoGP rights holder Dorna Sports as part of our world-leading Road to MotoGP initiative.
