The rider who came close to the title in Moto2 in 2021 was a bet by Massimo Rivola in 2023 when he signed him to the satellite RNF team and is now a solid reality on the starting grid.

Faced with the level of performance expressed by Raul Fernandez, the immobility of Aprilia and the Trackhouse team in renewing the contract of the Iberian rider was somewhat puzzling, but Francesco Guidotti pushed for the confirmation that actually arrived. Guest of the program El Larguero Raul Fernandez stated that from his point of view Spanish riders are not supported by DAZN which has the rights in Spain just as it happens with Italian riders with Sky.
