He Pentamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team was presented this Wednesday at the Palariccione Palazzo dei Congressi in Riccione, the same town where Marc Márquez discovered his new colors at Gresini Racing on the 20th, where the big news is the new livery of the team owned by Valentino Rossi which risks using the house’s trademark fluorine yellow combined with the red of its new Indonesian partner, the lubricant firm Pertamina Enduro, for Ducati GP23 that this year the Italians will pilot Marco Bezzecchi and Fabio di Giannantoniothe same one where Marc Márquez will try to recapture the MotoGP title.
After the ‘escape’ at Repsol Honda of Luca Marini flying alone away from the long shadow of his brother Valentino, the Tavullia team’s commitment to start what will be its fourth season in the premier category and after debuting in the Moto3 World Championship in 2014, is to give continuing the Marco Bezzecchithird in the 2023 World Cup, and Fabio di Giannantonio, two drivers who have known each other “since we started with tall tires,” recalls ‘Bez’. And the feeling between them was already noticed in this Riccione presentation where they discovered their new colors with a brighter fluorine yellow than before courtesy of Rossi’s head designer Aldo Drudi.
“She is brilliant, pretty, really different from the others, she is very special and I hope very fast,” commented Bezzecchi; “How brilliant, it’s incredible, it’s scary since I saw it for the first time,” concluded ‘Diggia’. “It’s exciting to see yellow again, now we have to speed them up,” commented boss Valentino Rossi.
“The history of the team is quite long, it’s our eleventh season and we’re third in MotoGP. We have had important collaborations, but we are especially happy with Pertamina. In Indonesia there is an incredible passion for MotoGP, it’s like we’re in the 80s, everyone is crazy about motorcycles,” Rossi explained about his new MotoGP partner.
“It’s an amazing day for us, we’re starting a new chapter and I can’t wait to get on the bike,” said Bezzecchi, the team’s veteran, in his third year with the team. “It’s very special to be here, it’s the first year with this team and I’m excited. There’s nothing better than this team to improve,” said Fabio di Giannantonio.
Alessio ‘Uccio’ Salucci, team director, mentioned that “with the Academy and the team we continue to bring the Tavullia name to the world and it has not been easy after Vale’s departure. This is something that makes me proud and we will try to do even better, although it won’t be easy after an incredible 2023.”
Team manager Pablo Nieto also knows this: “For us it will be a special year, even if it is difficult, but we have to enjoy it. The goal is always to improve, learn from mistakes and, above all, have fun. “We’ll try to be heroes.”
