Álvaro Bautista is 39 years old and continues to be in excellent shape, as demonstrated by the two World Superbike titles achieved dominantly in 2022 and 2023.
Next year he has another season ahead with Aruba.it Ducati, but considering his age it is natural to question: is the end of his career near? Team director Serafino Foti told GPOne.com when Bautista is expected to retire – however, without a specific date:
– In recent years I have gotten to know Álvaro better and better. What I can say is that when he no longer enjoys it, he will leave. Bautista is a rider who likes to have fun on the bike and for him that is more important than the challenge of the championship or the lead. In these two seasons he never thought about making calculations, he always wanted to have fun.
