Fabio Di Giannantonio is proof that young MotoGP riders need to be given more time
It is one of the least surprising announcements of the 2025 MotoGP rider market, after Ducati’s Davide Tardozzi gave the game away during the British Grand Prix.to race a full factory bike at VR46 is a welcome move.
Fourteen rounds into 2023, Di Giannantonio sat on just 54 points. Then began an incredible run of form that saw him break into the top six for the first time, score a maiden podium and then take a famous first victory in the Qatar GP while his career still hung in the balance. Going up against Marco Bezzecchi, who was third in the 2023 standings, not much hope was given for Di Giannantonio to be able to outpace his highly-rated team-mate. But after 10 rounds of the 2024 campaign, Bezzecchi is being well and truly trounced.
At VR46, Di Giannantonio has been welcomed into that fold despite being an ‘outsider’ as far as Rossi’s Academy is concerned and has continued to grow as a rider working with David Munoz - who will move to Alex Rins’ garage at Yamaha in 2025 - as crew chief. Naturally, there will be more expectation on Di Giannantonio’s shoulders now to start regularly muscling in on the podium battle on the GP25. He’s proven, though, that his resolve is strong and this won’t be an opportunity he will let pass by.
