GRESINI MOTO3 GOES WITH CONSISTENCY TO AIM EVEN HIGHER IN 2018

The 2018 MotoGP World Championship will see the continuation of the partnership between Gresini Racing and Del Conca in the Moto3 class. The world-leading company in the production of high-quality ceramic tiles, which is based in San Marino, will once again be title sponsor of Gresini’s Moto3 effort, and its logo will be on full display on the Honda NSF250RW machines of Fabio Di Giannantonio and Jorge Martin – both confirmed for one more season with the team.

With four events still to be contested this season, Martin and Di Giannantonio have already secured great results for the team, with 7 pole positions and 11 podiums combined in the first fourteen races. Both riders are also well positioned in the championship standings, despite Martin having to sit out two races due to injury.

These results have given Del Conca great visibility around the world and a chance to engage with their customers and fans through competitions and events. This is the reason behind the continuation of their partnership with Gresini Racing.

There are still areas to improve upon, but it would be foolish not to confirm the same effort given the great speed shown by both riders at every track in what has always been an extremely competitive and levelled series. Next year therefore it will be once again Martin and Diggia to spearhead the Moto3 attack on board the Del Conca-liveried Honda NSF250RW machines.

FABIO DI GIANNANTONIO #21
“I’m really happy to continue this journey together which started one and half years ago, and to be doing so with this amazing team is priceless! The goal is to improve year after year and race after race. 2018 will be my third year in the series and the goal will be to finish the season in the top 3. I would like to thank each and everyone from Fausto to our fans and especially our sponsors for the continuing support.”

JORGE MARTIN #88
“I’m so happy to stay with the Gresini family next year. It has felt like home since my first test with them. We have a really competitive package and I’m confident we will be able to fight for the title. It was already our goal for this year, but things did not go as planned with my injury interrupting the season. I would like to thank Fausto for giving me this opportunity and Del Conca which will continue as the team’s main sponsor for next year.”

DAVIDE  MULARONI – Managing Director Ceramica Del Conca Spa
“It is with immense pleasure that we have renewed our partnership with Fausto Gresini and his amazing team for the 2018 Moto3 World Championship. We are enjoying an exciting season with Team Del Conca Gresini Moto3, which has been racing at the front and collecting many podiums with Fabio Di Giannantonio and Jorge Marti. We can’t be anything but happy. Our presence in the MotoGP paddock is designed to give our customers an exclusive experience, which is only available through important sponsorships such as this one. For us this is a big commitment, but Fausto Gresini’s team took great care of each and every one of our guests and made them part of every exciting moment of this season. To be adding our name to a Moto3 team is not simply what our father, who helped start our company, would have wished, but it us also a way to increase the visibility of our brand by being part of a series where the will and courage of our young talented riders are absolute key values.”

FAUSTO GRESINI – Team Manager
“I’m happy to confirm that the whole squad will continue. It is great to be able to count on two such great riders as Jorge and Fabio. Both have grown immensely since joining the team and we have had a real chance to be in contention at the front in all races. This is a team that always wants to improve, and this is why I would like to thank everyone, from the riders, the crew chiefs, all the staff working for us and everyone who believes in our mission. Obviously a special thanks goes to the Mularoni family who have showed so much passion and involvement with our team.”
