Since 1999, BMW has supplied the official course vehicles for MotoGP. That tradition continues this year.

Star of the 2018 fleet is an M5 Safety Car. Being based on the latest showroom model, it features a 4.4 litre twin-turbo V8 petrol engine that’s mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission and – for the first time – an xDrive part-time all-wheel drive system.

Back-up will be provided by an M6 Gran Coupé Safety Car, a pair of M4 Coupé Safety Cars, an M3 Safety Car and an M2 Safety Car. Furthermore, the Medical Car is an X5 M and two S 1000 RR Safety Bikes are going to be on duty too.

The 2018 MotoGP season begins with the Grand Prix of Qatar on the 18th of March.
