The Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team has announced that Ducati test rider Michele Pirro will enter the Motul Solidarity Grand Prix of Barcelona to replace Fabio Di Giannantonio.
After Di Giannantonio underwent successful shoulder surgery in preparation for the 2025 season, Andrea Iannone made his return to the Malaysian GP in high spirits as he stood in for his compatriot. However, it will be Pirro who will join Marco Bezecic in the VR46 box at the Sectrik de Barcelona-Catalunya ahead of the first official test of 2025 at the venue on Tuesday 19 November.
Due to Ducati’s impressive form in recent years, the new discount system for the 2024 campaign means this will be Pirro’s first season and first since the 2023 Japanese GP.
