The Moto2 and Moto3 tyre supply has always differed from the MotoGP class, with Dunlop rubber powering the lower categories for over a decade now.
Dunlop's current contract with Dorna Sports, MotoGP's promoter, comes to a conclusion this year.
Autosport reported last week that Italian tyre brand Pirelli will take over as the sole supplier for Moto2 and Moto3 from the 2024 season, building on its top tier motorcycle racing presence having been the long-time supplier of the World Superbike Championship.
On Thursday, Dorna confirmed that a three-year deal with Pirelli is being finalised.
"We’re super happy to welcome Pirelli to the paddock as the sole tyre supplier for Moto2 and Moto3, and across the Road to MotoGP," Dorna CEO Carmelo Ezpeleta said.
"These championships are the best example in motorsport of strong feeder classes that also stand alone as high-level competitions, in terms of both their sporting and commercial value.
"So we’re very happy to have seen such a high level of interest from Pirelli and to reach this agreement.
"Welcoming a new partner also underlines our sport’s strong connections and relationships with the industry, and we’re very much looking forward to working with Pirelli across a number of areas, including performance, road-relevance and, of course, sustainability."
