Puccetti will continue their long-standing partnership with Kawasaki in WorldSBK next season, receiving a factorᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚy bik🍒e in the process.

Currently with Tito Rabatꦏ on their ZX-10RR machine, the Puccetti team are expected to head in a different 𒆙direction in 2025. 

Puccetti ar🔯e one of the most successful satellite teams in the class, along with being one of the most reputable due to their longevity in the championship. 

Three riders are reportedly in contention for the 202💟5 seat, the first being Garrett Ger꧋loff.

The Ameri💙can rider will leave BMW after Bonovo's decision to split fro🎶m the German manufacturer.

Gerloff, who has struggled for consistency in 2024, remains a big talent on the grid 🤡and could be a great option at Kawasaki, who have improved their bike this season.

The other current WorldSBK candidate is Michael Ruben Rinald✃i.

The Italian has endured a nightmare season with Motocorsa and is expected 📖to leave the team in 2025.

As a result Rinaldi is also expected🃏 to leave Ducati, and with no factory rides open, the five-time Superbike race winner could slot in at Puccetti.

Rinaldi has been one of the best r𒀰iders in WorldSBK over the last few seasons and would be an upgrade over Rabat who 🌠has once again struggled this year.

The third option touted ♌is a surpr༺ise name in the form of Ryan Vickers who is going great guns in BSB this season.

Vickers, who is riding the R1 Yamaha, has five wins to his name this seas꧙on and has emerged as a legit contender for a WorldSBK promotion.
