Gigi Dall’Igna has provided an update on the factory Ducati team’s plans in WorldSBK for 2025.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista, reigning champion the last two y𝔍ears, is the preferred option to stay alongside Nicolo Bulega.

Dall’Igna, who was in Misano last weekend said a deal to 👍remain with title-sponsor Aruba.it was close, before going on to discuss the future of Bautista.

“We are renewing the contract with Aruba,” Dall’Igna told WorldSBK.com. “We have almost close the deal with them and after that we have to finalise the contracts with the rid♓ers.

“Alvaro is a double world champion with us and for sure, he is an imp🌜ortant rider for us. We would like to con﷽tinue with him.”

If Bautista decides to r💧etire which is very possible, Ducati will need to find an alternative option.

R💧eplacing Bautista will not be easy as he’s dominated WorldSBK with Ducati the last two years.

🉐Although 2024 has been a lot tougher, Baඣutista is still a title contender after four rounds.

Ducati appea﷽rs to have a ready-made replacement in Andrea Iannone, however✃, Dall’Igna admitted more is needed from the Italian.

“Andrea was without racing for four long years, he came back a few months ago and it’s not easy,” began Dall’Igna. 

“He has shown his potential some 𝓡times but he has to improve a little bit. I’m confident because I know him and his talent. I know he can do very well.”

Asked whether Iannone could repꦉlace Bautista, Dall’Igna reiterated Ducati stance on who they want to secure.

“I don’t think it is important to talk about that today because our first choice 🐻is Alvaro🌳.”
