# Paddock Grand Prix

Paddock Grand Prix was a Grand Prix motorcycle racing team from Switzerland who competed in the F.I.M. Road Racing World Championship since 2002 until 2014, before being acquired by team Technomag. In 2005, Paddock's rider Thomas Lüthi won the 125cc title.

## History

The team began racing as Elit Grand Prix in the 2002 season with Czech rider Jakub Smrž on a Honda RS125R.
At the 2005 French Grand Prix the Paddock team achieved its first victory thanks to Thomas Lüthi who won the 125cc race. At the end of the season he secured the world championship title in the 125cc class. In the 2007 season the team, known as Emmi - Caffè Latte Racing Team, switched to Aprilia bikes with rider Sandro Cortese on an Aprilia RS 125 R in the 125 class and Thomas Lüthi on an Aprilia RSV 250 in the 250 division.
For the 2010 season, the team was renamed Interwetten Racing. Lüthi finished the season in fourth place in the inaugural Moto2 campaign, riding a Honda-powered Moriwaki chassis. The Interwetten team also fielded a bike in the MotoGP class for the first time with former 250cc world champion Hiroshi Aoyama finishing in 15th place aboard a Honda RC212V. Interwetten rider Marcel Schrötter finished 18th in the 125cc class on a Honda RS125R.
Between 2011 and 2014 the Interwetten Paddock team fielded a Suter bike for Thomas Lüthi in the Moto2 class. Since 2013 the team expanded its activities to the Moto3 class with a Kalex-KTM bike for Philipp Öttl.
For 2015 the Paddock team was acquired by the Technomag team and its base was relocated in France on the CGBM Evolution premises, near the Paul Ricard Circuit.
