David Alonso is currently making waves in the Moto3 World Championship. Not only is he leading the championship, but he has consistently been the fastest in practices, qualifying sessions, and races, tallying five wins and four pole positions in seven races.
The CFMoto Aspar rider’s impressive results in 2023 confirm his promising debut season. Next year, despite being only 18 years old and having time for career progression, Alonso could potentially make the leap to Moto2.
According to SPEEDWEEK.com, Jorge Martínez Aspar’s team will aim to retain Alonso and promote him to the intermediate category. Currently, his Moto2 riders are Izan Guevara and Jake Dixon, both of whom seem replaceable. Dixon had a challenging start to the season due to injury but has started to rebound, securing a podium.
On the other hand, Guevara has yet to showcase the potential that led him to win the Moto3 championship; in 27 races in Moto2, he has only scored points in eight races and finished in the top ten three times.
Alonso, on his part, continues to demonstrate superiority in Moto3. Whether with CFMoto Aspar or elsewhere, if he maintains this form, he should easily secure a place in Moto2. Moreover, Alonso is linked with Red Bull and KTM, both extensively involved in the championship.
