Fabio di Giannantonio can do little on the track to change his future when he doesn’t have a contract in MotoGP for 2024. This Sunday, he showcased the best argument of all so far with his first victory at the Qatar GP.«
The current Gresini rider was asked if he now approaches the Valencia GP feeling more free mentally, considering he did his best to show he deserves a seat. In response, di Giannantonio denied it:
– For the rest of my life, if I look at Qatar 2023 race in MotoGP, I will always be the winner; I will always be proud of my achievement. But also I’m not free at all, because this is my dream. It’s the dream of our lifes to race in this level, in this championship, with these bikes, and to live with this job. So I’m not free at all because I would love to continue my journey. I will be free once and if I can sign a contract for next year.
For now, the Italian wants to enjoy the victory and maximize the opportunity that the Valencia GP presents: ‘At the moment I just want to be proud of my moment, enjoying the moment and try to make maximum also in Valencia that it’s another opportunity. It could be my last one, or maybe not. So I just want to do the maximum’.
