The partnership brings together two icons driven by the same passion for racing and by a shared commitment to excellence within the unique world of production‑based motorcycle competition.
As one of the world’s leading motorcycle racing series, WorldSBK is pure Motorsport, where road derived motorcycles are pushed to the limit by the best riders on the planet. In this environment, performance is a decisive factor, influencing lap times, overtaking and consistency. This makes the Championship a uniquely relevant platform for Brembo, whose racing heritage is deeply tied to technological advancement.
Mauro Piccoli, Brembo Chief Marketing Officer: “Racing has always been part of Brembo’s identity. Partnering with WorldSBK means strengthening a shared passion for speed, control and excellence. Here, every braking gesture matters and every detail helps shape tomorrow’s technologies. We are excited to work alongside WorldSBK to continue inspiring riders and enthusiasts through delivering innovative, best in class solutions.”
Gregorio Lavilla, WorldSBK Executive Director: “WorldSBK represents the closest link between racing and the road. By welcoming Brembo as Innovation Partner, we reinforce the technical relevance of the Championship and underline how developments born in competition continue to shape the future of production motorcycles.”
Brembo with its braking solutions, together with Öhlins suspensions and Marchesini wheels - both brand are part of the Group - will supply more than 80% of the 2026 WorldSBK grid, confirming its leadership in high performance motorcycle components.
This partnership goes far beyond a commercial agreement. Brembo and WorldSBK share the same ambition: deliver greater stability, consistency and durability to ensure that the innovations forged in the demanding world of racing ultimately enhance the everyday riding experience for all motorcyclists.
For Brembo, WorldSBK represents a powerful real world laboratory where extreme competition fuels the next generation technology.
For WorldSBK, welcoming Brembo as Innovation Partner, strengthens its identity as the home of authentic, production-based racing where what happens on track remains directly relevant to riders everywhere.
Brembo’s presence will be visible across WorldSBK events from the start of the 2026 season, already during Phillip Island round, including technical activations for fans, aligning the brand closely with the Championship’s pure Motorsport positioning.
