Two-time Dakar Rally winner Toby Price has announced he will part ways with the factory KTM team after nearly a decade with the Austrian bike manufacturer.

The 36-year-old said in a social media post on Tuesday that KTM had decided not to renew his contract following the 46th running of Dakar in January. 'KTM has decided to not renew my contract so Dakar 2024 was my last event with them… I do feel like I'm still in my prime and going out there fighting for wins, especially at Dakar so it's unfortunate to not have that opportunity to do it in 2025,' Price wrote.

A second victory in the world's toughest rally raid would follow in 2019, despite a wrist injury that he had been carrying since a training event in the run-up to the event. #2 Red Bull KTM Factory: Toby Price Photo by: Red Bull Content Pool It was also the last in KTM's streak of 19 successive victories in Dakar, with the Austrian manufacturer getting outshone by Honda in 2020 after the event moved to Saudi Arabia.
