Danny Kent arrived on the World Championship scene in 2011 from the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup and some impressive rides in his 2010 125 World Championship campaign. Snapped up by the reputed Ajo Motorsport stable for 2011, Kent continued with the Red Bull KTM Ajo team in his quest for a Moto3™ title, scoring two race wins along the way. Kent made the switch to Moto2™ for 2013 with the Tech 3 Racing outfit but it was a tough year for him results wise. He returned to Moto3™ in 2014 looking to win races in the new Red Bull Husqvarna Ajo team, but for 2015 moved onto a Honda with Leopard Racing. With four pole positions and six wins, Kent won the Moto3™ World Championship at the season finale in Valencia. For 2016 Kent remained with the Leopard Team but moving up to Moto2™, with some solid results paving the way for a 2017 campaign with the same Kiefer Racing-run outfit. Then parting ways with the team early in the year, Kent did some one-off rides before he returns to the Moto2™ grid in 2018 on a Speed Up.
