MotoGP’s newest race winner Fabio Di Giannantonio has received a boost in his hopes of staying on the grid for 2024 – with the momentum now seemingly in his favour for the securing about-to-be-vacated VR46 Ducati ride
Fabio Di Giannantonio’s recent success in MotoGP has increased his chances of securing a spot on the grid for the 2024 season, particularly the VR46 Ducati ride. Di Giannantonio had initially seemed unlikely to retain his position on the grid, but his improved performance and maiden grand prix win have changed the situation. Although he had also vied for the vacant Honda ride left by Marc Marquez, Luca Marini appears to be the favored candidate for that seat. However, Marini’s impending arrival at Honda has opened up an opportunity for Di Giannantonio at VR46, despite initial doubts expressed by team chief Uccio Salucci. The move would further solidify VR46 as a prominent supporter of Italian talent in MotoGP.
