Bassani is expected to remain with Motocorsa Ducati after eꦕarly season hype linking him🅺 with the factory Aruba.it Ducati team went quiet. 

With that said, Bassani produced his best ride ever in WorldSB🌳K during Race 2 of the Imola round last Sunday, and will have cau🔥ght the eye doing so. 

• Rea: “I don’t understand my team or Kawasaki’s direction wit🉐h rev limits” 
• Razgatliog⛄lu: “I’ve waited every wee✃kend for this, surprised Bautista crashed”

A challenger for victor𓆉y until the final few laps, Bassani proved he can take the fight to riders such as Toprak Ra🌳zgatlioglu and Jonathan Rea. 

In terms of the rider shuffle at Ducati, Nicolo Bulega has been heavily linked with a move to the fa🐠ctory team alongside Alvaro Bautista, which is why Bassani is expected to remain with Motocorsa.

Speaking to WorldSBK.com, Bassani’s team principal Lorenzo Mau🐎ri admitted he wants to keep the Italian: "Several riders are knocking on the door of our team. Probably, we'll have two bikes but firstly, I want to understand what Axel is going to do. 

"Most of these riders are riders from the Grand Prix padd🐼ock, so MotoGP riders, former MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3. It is a good reward for the work we have been doing for eight years."

Plenty of riders ꦉfrom MotoGP have been linked to WorldSBK for the 2024 season, such as Franco Morbidelli, Fabio Di Giannantonio and to a lesser extent Johann Zarco. 

Mauri also said a deadline has not been given to Bassani❀, who is like others is waiting for Ducati’s decision on who will partner Bautista, which is expected later this month. 

"About 2024, we are waiting for Axel and his manager Aജlberto's decision to make a decision about us, too," added Mauri.

 "We have not given t�🌞�hem a deadline to let us know. I have spoken with Alberto, his manager, telling him ‘if you get a deal with someone, let me know'."
