Another top Ducati rider has left for a rival manufacturer, which opens up some much-needed routes for other riders
Aprilia’s progress in recent years has made Maverick Vinales’ switch to Tech3 for 2025 highly sought after, with Marco Bezzecchi filling his place effortlessly. Bezzecchi’s move from VR46 Ducati creates a ripple effect on the MotoGP market, adding twists to the ongoing silly season. Franco Morbidelli’s potential move to fill Bezzecchi’s spot at Rossi’s team indicates a shifting landscape in the paddock. The dearth of available riders could lead Pramac to consider other options, possibly leaning towards a lucrative Yamaha offer. Di Giannantonio’s performance has been a deciding factor in Ducati’s rider selection, showing his value in the current MotoGP setup. If Pramac remains, Di Giannantonio is likely to secure a Ducati ride, ensuring the continuation of his MotoGP career. The potential destinations for Di Giannantonio could be either VR46 or Gresini teams, depending on Ducati’s factory alignment.
