ENEA BASTIANINI

Enea Bastianini was already riding minibikes at age three—foreshadowing the immense talent that lay ahead. By his late teens, he was a rising force in Moto3™️, crowned Rookie of the Year in 2014, then claiming his maiden victory on home soil in Misano the following season. After five impressive years in the lightweight class, Enea moved to Moto2™️ in 2019, where he reached the pinnacle in 2020 by becoming World Champion with Italtrans Racing.

Stepping into MotoGP™️ in 2021, “La Bestia” wasted little time making headlines, standing on the podium twice as a rookie. The following year with Gresini Racing, he stunned the paddock by winning the opening race in Qatar—his first of four victories in 2022—securing a stellar third place in the championship and earning a coveted Ducati Factory seat. An injury-affected 2023 tested his resolve, but he still clinched his first Factory Ducati victory in Malaysia. Bouncing back strongly in 2024, he finished fourth overall—highlighted by multiple wins, podiums, and Sprint successes—yet parted ways with Ducati for 2025.

Now, Enea embarks on a new chapter, signing as a factory KTM rider and joining forces with Red Bull KTM Tech3 alongside Maverick Viñales.
