Only title contender Jorge Martin delivered a bigger increase in points during the second half of the 2023 MotoGP season than Fabio di Giannantonio.
Martin scored 50 points more in the final ten rounds compared to the opening ten events, despite the cancellation of the Phillip Island Sprint. Di Giannantonio was close behind with +49 points and would have had an additional 7 points if not for a penalty at the Valencia finale. His remarkable turnaround propelled him from 16th to 12th in the final world championship standings. Di Giannantonio was one of only six riders to score over 100 points in the second half of the season. With the help of his new crew chief Frankie Carchedi, he made progress throughout the season and trusted the process. Despite the pressure of losing his MotoGP seat, Di Giannantonio delivered impressive performances and was eventually confirmed at the VR46 Ducati team for 2024.
