After two years, Fabio Di Giannantonio will leave Gresini at the end of this MotoGP season. His place will be taken by Marc Márquez, but he still feels sad about the outcome.
In an interview with TNT Sports, the Italian stated that he was sad to lose the spot, but also acknowledged that Márquez is not just any rider: ‘I was very sad, because I really put everything into this team. It’s a bit sad for me, because I really wanted to achieve the main goal with this team. But on the other hand, it’s Marc Márquez, we are professionals and it can happen, it’s normal because it’s Márquez‘.
On the other hand, Di Giannantonio revealed some dissatisfaction with the management of the process by Gresini: ‘I also didn’t like the way the team handled the situation, honestly. They could have trusted more in me and Franky, and in our work. They could have waited more. Marc will come, he is the best, eight-time champion, so it’s fine, that’s what there is‘.
