In the agreement with KTM, McGrath Racing Inc has the autonomy to select the team's performance products tests for the first time in several years, determined to prove that Dunlop tyres clearly offer a performance advantage.
"I spent most of my career on Dunlops, and I'm comfortable with them," said McGrath, "There is a definite edge to the Dunlops."
"We are thrilled to have Jeremy McGrath back in our racing family," said Dunlop vice-president Mike Buckley, "Dunlop Tyres and Jeremy McGrath have been a very powerful combination with a record of many championships, and we look forward to working with Jeremy once again."
