Vickers achieved his best result of the season with a seventh place in the Superpole Race at Balaton Park during his debut campaign.
Vickers stated his intentions to stay in WorldSBK, but the team has not yet announced a replacement. Team manager Lorenzo Mauri praised Vickers’ progress but cited challenges in on-track battles and overtaking. Motocorsa is looking at Moto2 and MotoE riders for the next season to secure a consistent top-ten finish.
Despite interest in riders like Albert Arenas from Moto2, the team faces difficulties in convincing them to make the transition due to the competitive level. Mauri emphasized the complexity of the decision-making process and the financial commitment required for the project. The team is still in the evaluation stage and actively engaging with potential candidates to secure a competitive rider for the upcoming season.
