Pecco Bagnaia is set to get a new crew chief when he joins Aprilia next season
Pecco Bagnaia will part ways with long-time MotoGP crew chief Cristian Gabarrini when he moves to Aprilia next season.
Their partnership began in 2019 when Bagnaia first entered the premier class with Ducati and Pramac.
Gabarrini, who has been instrumental in Bagnaia’s success, will stay at Ducati to work with Pedro Acosta in 2027.
Bagnaia’s decision not to bring Gabarrini to Aprilia showcases his desire for a fresh start at the Italian brand.
He will now team up with Daniele Romagnoli at Aprilia, a move that makes sense given the need for a new perspective after recent struggles.
Romagnoli’s experience with Jorge Martin at Pramac will be valuable for Bagnaia as he looks to adapt to his new team.
This change signifies Bagnaia’s commitment to making the most of his potential in a different environment.
