The only remaining seat in the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2024 MotoGP rider line-up is replacing 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Luca Marini, who is set for Repsol Honda, at VR46.

Di Giannantonio’s manager Diego Tava🌠n🔴o emerged from a meeting on Thursday in Valencia with VR46 optimistic that they would land the bike, report.

Aldeguer, the teenage talent who has won🥀 three Moto2 races in a row, ꧑was the first-choice pick but no longer looks likely.

Luca Boscos𒀰curo, the owner of Aldeguer’s Speed Up Moto 2 team, has never wanted him to leave.

He was asking VR46 to pay “millions🧜” to acquire Aldeguer, report, because a clause in the rider’s contract allowing him to step up into MotoGP has expired.

"It was too late to chang♚e and find a replacement, Fermin understood," Boscoscuro told Sky.

"I th🐻ink it🌺's the right choice, he needs to mature and lay the foundations to be ready for MotoGP."

Ducati don’t want Aldeguer to go to Yamaha

ꦍAldeguer had two offers - VR46 for 2024, or Pramac Ducati for 2025.

And because Speed Up won’t sanction his exit now, Pramac look likꦫe they’ve won the race for his signature after he spends one more year in Moto2.

"Gigi Dall'Igna wa🌠nts Aldeguer and wants him in the Ducati ranks,” DAZN report.

“Gigi is going to try to keep Aldeguer closed for 25/26 at Pramac.🦂”

Valentino Rossi’s VR46 team will reportedly join Yamaha in 2025, after the 🌞final year of their contract as a Ducati satellite team in 2024.

That 🍨means, should Aldeguer go to VR46 now, he would become a Yamaha satellite rider꧒ after a year.

Ducati do not want to lose the talen🍷ted young rid🍌er to Yamaha.

So giving him an impressive offer to join Pramac in 2025 is their way of keeping hold of a potential future star, rather than letting him follow Rossi’s te🦋am to the Jap🐼anese manufacturer.
