Fermin Aldeguer will join the Gresini Racing team in MotoGP next season. The 19-year-old Spaniard dominated the second half of the 2023 Moto2 championship, winning at Jerez and Sachsenring. After signing a MotoGP deal with Ducati earlier this year, Aldeguer will replace Marc Marquez, who is moving to the factory Ducati team. In his third full Moto2 season, Aldeguer showed impressive performance with a four-race winning streak at the end of the season, which secured him third place in the Moto2 standings and caught Ducati's attention. He will make his MotoGP debut in 2025, riding a year-old GP24 bike, alongside his more experienced teammate, Alex Marquez. Fans are excited to see what Aldeguer will achieve as he steps up to MotoGP.
