The Gresini Racing rider is perhaps the most at-rꦐisk rider, in terms of a 2024 seat, on the entire grid.

He is certainly the rider within the large Ducati clan who should 𒈔be most fear🌄ful of remaining in the premier class.

His contract expires at the end of this season and replacements are being touted - Moto2 rider Tony Arbolino, Yamaha’s Franco Morbidelli or Pramac’s💝 Johann Zarco have all been linked.

“I'm really very motivated because we've gone through a very nice imp😼rovement this year,” Di Giannantonio told . 

“Th🐓ere are many rumours, including about me, buꦉt in truth this spurs me on. 

"I want to do very well in these next t🦹hree or four races in order to put myself in a good position for next year.

“For any driver who has to renew a contract, it is always important to do well. Tဣhat's generally the case.

“I'm motivated, mainly because 𒊎the potential is really big. As I said, the increase this year was very good.

“The Ducati now seems to be🐈 the best bike in the fജield. We're just missing a few small adjustments that we're making race by race. 

“But I really ha꧑ve to say that I have the feeling th♉at we are there for Silverstone.”

Di Giannanto♌nio returns for the British MotoGP on August 6 knowing his fate could already be sealed by then.

He is 15t♔h in ཧthe MotoGP standings, his best result this year was eighth in Le Mans.

Di Giannanton💎io’s hopes have not been helped by arm pump surgery.

“We had a small operation on the forearm, which is a bit rout൩ine for us riders,” he said. 

“The recovery is going well, I'm doing physical therapy and should be back at 100 percent by next week. So we're coming to Silverstone motivated𝓀.”
