MOTOGP SHOCKWAVE! Francesco “Pecco” Bagnaia will begin a new chapter with Aprilia Racing after signing a four-year contract that will keep the two-time MotoGP World Champion in Noale until the end of the 2030 season. The move brings an end to Bagnaia’s successful eight-year journey with Ducati, where he secured MotoGP titles in 2022 and 2023, alongside 31 Grand Prix victories and 62 podium finishes. Bagnaia is set to partner fellow Italian Marco Bezzecchi in an all-Italian factory line-up. With a fresh challenge ahead and Aprilia aiming for championship glory, one of the biggest rider transfers in recent MotoGP history is now officially confirmed.
