The Aruba.it Racing team’s MotoGP adventure begins with a fascinating back-to-back.

The third and final 2022 wild card for the Aruba.it Racing team is scheduled for September 4th at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli for the Gran Premio di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini Grand.

“It’s nice to race right after Mugello because it allows me to get into a rhythm. The goal is to improve, session by session, working to take points for the standings. It’s not easy since the competition is very high but we still have confidence. I haven’t ridden on this track for a few years but I’m sure I can do well.”
