The best Bezzecchi ever
At 27 years old Marco Bezzecchi is in his full competitive maturity and after the trio of victories at the start of 2026 with his Aprilia he seems to really have in his hands the possibility of fighting for the world championship. The Rimini-born rider has never won a title in the World Championship and before these five consecutive victories between the end of 2025 and 2026 he had never managed to achieve two successes in a row in his career.
Of course, the season is still very long and Ducati will certainly be a rival to fear, both with Marc Marquez and with Pecco Bagnaia.
Zarco bets on Bezzecchi
In a long interview granted to the Spaniards of Motosan, Johann Zarco of Honda LCR spoke about the rise of ‘Bez‘: “Bezzecchi will become popular with the general public, because what he is doing is so exceptional that he could become one of the Italian leaders. In a sense, the heir and continuation of Valentino Rossi, as Pecco Bagnaia was. We will see how long it lasts, but his name will soon become a ‘boom’ globally”.

Valentino and Bez at the ranch… with Antonelli
In recent days, photos of Andrea Kimi Antonelli, leader of the Formula 1 world championship, at Valentino Rossi’s Tavullia Ranch have gone around the web. The photo of Rossi between the two championship leaders of Formula 1 and MotoGP – Antonelli and Bezzecchi – immediately became iconic and viral.
Antonelli watched his friends speed along the Flat Track from the trackside: his contract with Mercedes forbids him from this type of activity.
