Boscoscuro to Kalex team swap could create pathway from Moto2 to MotoGP
Reportedly, the Moto2 rider market is heating up with behind-the-scenes activity. Alonso Lopez is set to switch teams in the championship, pending an official announcement. Leaving Speed Up Racing, Lopez is poised to join Gresini Racing’s Moto2 outfit, as per Sky Italia. This move will see him swapping a Boscoscuro for a Kalex bike in 2026, with hopes of advancing his MotoGP aspirations. Despite competition involving Diogo Moreira, Gresini’s clear priority landed Lopez swiftly in their fold. Should Moreira move to MotoGP, Italtrans will need to seek a replacement elsewhere. Lopez’s transition from Speed Up Racing is anticipated to be smooth, considering his strong track record with 17 podiums in four years. Currently 14th in the Moto2 standings, the Spanish rider sees joining Gresini as a potential pathway to the premier class.
