OnlyFans Sponsors Ducati Team Days Before Their Daytona Triumph
Unexpected Sponsorship Takes Daytona by Storm
Last weekend’s celebrated Daytona motorcycle races featured an unexpected branding twist—HSBK Warhorse Racing flaunted a sponsorship from OnlyFans, a platform generally noted for its adult content, creating a buzz in the racing scene.
A Bold Move by HSBK Warhorse Racing
The U.S. racing team, armed by the venerable Italian moto-brand Ducati, revealed their dynamic OnlyFans partnership just moments before securing their brilliant victory at Daytona. This strategic announcement was met with mixed reactions but undeniably heightened interest in the event.
The team’s excitement was palpable in a promotional Instagram post, now deleted, which trumpeted the new partnership. “Super excited to announce our partnership with OnlyFans this year!” they wrote, signaling a groundbreaking twist in motorsport sponsorships.

The bikes, decked out in OnlyFans’ distinctive blue and white, made quite the statement with the logo emblazoned across them at a March 2 launch party held in the heart of Pennsylvania. The spectacle didn’t stop at paint jobs—Josh Herrin, HSBK’s lead racer, sported a helmet with the OnlyFans logo during his Saturday victory lap at the prestigious Daytona 200 motorcycle race.

At the unveiling event, Herrin shared that he played an instrumental role in netting the OnlyFans sponsorship. “I think it’s an amazing opportunity. It’s cool. This is now the second company that I’ve brought in as a title sponsor,” he told an entertained crowd, who responded with jests and cheers, urging him to embrace the playful spirit of the event.
The Dichotomy of Audience and Sponsorship
While OnlyFans’ association with X-rated content stands as a stark contrast to the family-oriented audience that Daytona’s motorcycle races typically attract, this bold pairing brings a fresh and audacious dynamic to the racing industry. Amidst the roaring engines and tire screeches, families gather, fathers bond with sons, and memories are forged on the racetracks.
According to MotoAmerica’s marketing insights, a substantial 5% of superbike racing content viewers are teenagers aged between 13 to 17. MotoAmerica itself beckons the family audience with attractions like a Kids Zone and free carnival games, emphasizing the event’s family-friendly ethos.
Further solidifying its commitment to family and youth engagement, MotoAmerica offers kids under 12 free admission to certain events and nurtures young racing talent through its Mission Mini Cup initiative, encouraging children as young as five to experience the thrill of motorcycle road racing.

The synergy between the thrilling world of Daytona races and the vast audiences they reach—both trackside and through television or social media—is undeniable, with last year’s series seeing over 200,000 attendees and 3.7 million households tuning in.
Despite reaching out, HSBK Warhorse Racing, Ducati, and MotoAmerica have yet to comment on this surprising fusion of adult digital entertainment and motorsport sponsorship—a topic that continues to rev engines and provoke discussions well beyond the finish line.
