    RISPOSTA SERRAMENTI AND BK8 GRESINI MOTOGP STILL TOGETHER FOR THE 2026–2027 PERIOD

    The historic partnership between the BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP Team and Risposta Serramenti, a leading Italian company in the production of aluminium and PVC windows and frames, will continue throughout the 2026 and 2027 seasons. The 2026 season will mark the tenth anniversary of this collaboration, a milestone that celebrates a solid and long-lasting bond built over time, both on and off the track.

    Risposta will retain prominent visibility on the fairings of the light-blue Desmosedici machines, occupying the now-iconic tail area, while also appearing on team uniforms, inside the pit box, on the trucks, in the hospitality area, and on the interview backdrop.

    MARCO ROSSI – Risposta Serramenti CEO
    “This partnership represents, for me and for my company, an important point of reference — one that combines passion and entrepreneurial vision. The relationship with Team Gresini goes beyond simple sponsorship: over time, we have built a solid bond based on mutual trust and shared goals. Being part of the Gresini family’s journey means contributing to an ambitious project that values both professional and human aspects.”
     
    CARLO MERLINI – Gresini Racing Commercial and Marketing Director
    “The partnership with Risposta Serramenti is one of the longest-standing and most meaningful for our team. We have shared unforgettable moments, both on and off the track, and we’re delighted to continue this journey together throughout 2026 and 2027. A special thank you goes to Marco and the entire company for their continued trust and support.”

    “Today I changed my approach at the start of the race, as yesterday I got it wrong, as I attaked and did what I aimed to do. We had a great race and achieved the goal of becoming the best independent team from the top of the podium; now we’ll enjoy these last two races.”

    FERMIN ALDEGUER #54
    “It wasn’t the best way to wrap up a weekend where we were really strong and where we felt very competitive. We achieved a goal and in today’s race we learned a lot. I hit hard during the crash, but we’re going back home to recuperate.”

  4. FERMIN ON THE SPRINT PODIUM, ALEX 4th AT MANDALIKA

    FERMIN ALDEGUER #54
    “I must say that missing out on a win on the last lap hurts, but we must be happy with this result. Honestly, we knew Marco Bezzecchi was quicker than us, but with his mistake at the start we found ourselves in the right place at the right time. I could almost taste victory, but I’m happy: we’ll try to score another good result tomorrow.”

    ALEX MARQUEZ #73
    “It was a positive day, despite the mistake towards the end of Q2. We didn’t change the bike for the Sprint, even though I’m struggling quite a bit at the front-end: having said that, fourth place is a good result. We need to remain calm and make a good tyre choice for tomorrow’s race.”
