Celestino Vietti says “whoever’s best” will get the second VR46 MotoGP seat in 2027, but does that favour him?
Celestino Vietti believes that the best rider between him and other Italian riders will secure the second VR46 Ducati MotoGP seat in 2027, although it’s uncertain if it will be him. The competition for the seat includes current rider Franco Morbidelli and WorldSBK points leader Nicolo Bulega. Vietti stated that the decision will be based on performance and results will determine the deserving candidate. Bulega’s dominant performance in WorldSBK raises doubts about Morbidelli’s chances, as he has not shown the same level of success. While Vietti has had a solid Moto2 season, Bulega’s outstanding performance in WorldSBK presents a strong case for his selection. Ultimately, VR46’s decision will shed light on their priorities and preferences in choosing their MotoGP riders for the upcoming season.
