Fabio Di Giannantonio will ride for Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team in the upcoming MotoGP season. Thus, he will work with Valentino Rossi for the first time, believing he will have a good opportunity to improve as a rider.
The Italian rider said during a press conference that he wasn’t surprised with his new team: ‘For sure I knew this was a super team as you can see in their 10 years. They achieved a lot of successes. When I joined, I didn’t had any particular surprises, because at the end I knew it was a super team. We started in a good way in Valencia, the staff was so cool’.
After a normal winter, Di Giannantonio expects the biggest differences will come throughout the season, highlighting having Valentino Rossi in the team as a key advantage: ‘Honestly the winter was quite normal. There weren’t big changes from my side. During the year there will be some differences, because I can train more often at the Ranch and with VR46 guys. So for sure from my side it will be a huge opportunity to improve. And also to have Valentino as a boss will be a super help for me because I have the GOAT who can give us some advices. These are the main differences’.
