Jeremy Alcoba has become the latest rider to swap Moto2 for WorldSSP after signing a contr🌜act fo෴r 2025 with the Kawasaki Puccetti Racing team.

Alco🌸ba, whose Grand Prix debut came in 2018, hꦓas been a part of the Grand Prix paddock as a full-time rider since 2020.

After two full seasons with Gresini in Moto3 — which saw him secure one pole position and three podi🐲ums — the Spanish rider moved up to Moto2 with the IntactGP team in 2022.

Alcoba mo♑ved back to Gresini for his second M𝕴oto2 season in 2023, before switching to the Yamaha VR46 MasterCamp team for this season.

Alcoba has scored a best result of fourth place in Moto2, achieved on four occasꦬions: the 2023 Americas Grand Prix, 2023 Australian Grand Prix, 2024 Catalan Grand Prix, and 2024 Japanese Grand Prix.

2025 will see him become the latest in a long line of Moto2 riders to switch the intermediate Grand Prix class for WorldSSP, after the likes of Sandro Cortese, Andrea Locatelli, Dominique Aegerter♛, and Nicolo Bulega, all of whom have become WorldSSP champions.

“First of all, I would like to sincerely thank Puccetti and Kꦅawasaki Racing for giving me this incredible opportunity and b𒉰elieving in me,” Alcoba said on his signing with Puccetti Kawasaki.

“I understand♕ that this is a significant change, as the bikes in the categ✅ory I come from [Moto2] are quite different, but that only fuels my determination.

“I’m very excited and motivated by this opportunity and the new challenge ahead. I’m committed to giving my absolute ❀best, not just for myself, but for t🧔he team, the fans, and everyone supporting me.

“I’m fully aware that I’ll be part of a team with an outstanding legacy - one that holds many records in terms of victories and championships. To have such a strong and historic brand like Kawasaki behind me, with its immense history, victories, and potential, is an h👍onour.

“I am confident that, together, we can achieve great things, and I can’t wait to show 🤡whatౠ we can accomplish on the track.

“My goal is to adapt quickly, push myse𒁏lf to the limit, and deliver thrilling performances that fans will rem🐼ember. The hard work starts now, and I am ready for it.”

Manu𒅌el Puccetti, Kawasaki Puccetti team principal, added: “We’ve very pleased to be able to embark on this collaboration with Jeremy Alcoba, a talented young rider. We can achieve ambitious goals with him, also con♐sidering that we’ll be able to count on the new 2025 model of Ninja ZX-6R.

“We’ll carry out some initial tests 🦩in November, the first step of a project that we hope can be a success.🐬”
