Ducati extends Gresini MotoGP contract until 2026
Gresini team to keep Desmosedicis until th🥃e end of the 1000cc MotoꦑGP era.

Ducati not o꧒nly completed its reduced 2025 MotoGP line-up with confirmation of Fermin Aldeguer to Gresini, but also announced a new two-year deal with the satellite team.
Title runner-up on Honda 🥂machinery with Sete Gibernau and Marco Melandri in the early years of the ‘MotoGP’ era, Gresini later became Aprilia’s factory team fro🎶m 2015 to 2021.
Fausto Gresini tragically died from C🃏ovid complications in February of 2021, but his team forged on with a new satellite Ducati agreemen൲t and took an emotional victory in the opening round of 2022.
Bastianini took three further🦹 wins on his way to third in the world championship. Fabio di Giannantonio then added a fifth Desmosedici victory for Gresini at Qatar last year.
The arrival of Marc Marquez alongside younger brother for 2024 kept the team firmly in the limelighಌt.
While the #93🍬 will leave and replace Bastianini in the factory team next year, when VR46 also takes over from Pramac as Ducati’s official satellite team, Gresini has been boosted by an exten🍌ded deal to run Desmosedicis until the end of the 1000cc era.
“We’re very happy to extend our partnership with the Gresini family until 2026,” said Ducati Corse g🔜eneral manager Gigi Dall’Igna.
“The team led by Nadia Padovani has managed to achieve great goals in recent yea🅠rs while showing all its strength and profession💮alism.”
“Team Gresini Raci🔴ng also brought several riders – some of them very young – to winning ways.
“This is why we’re sure that this is the idealꦉ squad to ♒welcome Fermín Aldeguer and to accompany him in his MotoGP debut season.
“I’d like to thank once again Nadia and the whole Gresini family. Looking forward to more 🐠exciting times together!”
Alex Marquez (contracted to Gre꧂sini) and Aldeguer (contracted to Ducati) will form Gresini's lin🌸e-up for the next two years.
MotoGP will then switch to new ♚850cc engines from 2027.
