Scam Uncovered
It was not a peaceful post-August 15th for Gino Borsoi, team manager of the Prima Pramac Racing team, who found himself unwillingly at the center of a decidedly peculiar and unpleasant affair. Some scammers – there is no other term to define them – allegedly used Borsoi’s name to extort money from unsuspecting victims with the promise of providing in exchange access passes to the MotoGP paddock during race weekends. A full-fledged scam of which, of course, Borsoi himself knew nothing before being alerted.

The 52-year-old manager and former Italian rider thus reported the incident on his official social channels, warning fans against similar scam attempts.
“I have been informed that some people are contacting third parties in my name, promising access and passes to the MotoGP in exchange for money. It’s not me. It’s a scam. Beware of anyone contacting you in my name with such requests. Thank you, Gino Borsoi”, the message posted on the Instagram profile of the Pramac manager.
