Marco Bezzecchi enters the penultimate round of the MotoGP season in third place, well on track to secure a final podium in the World Championship in only his second season in the premier class.
Beyond the victories he already got, the Mooney VR46 Racing Team rider has been a regular contender at the front of the pack, finishing outside the top five only six times.
Loris Capirossi spoke to Radio Cusano Campus about this MotoGP season and pointed to Bezzecchi as the surprise of 2023: ‘This year, without a doubt, the surprise is Bezzecchi. Marco is having an incredible championship: he has dominated the bike and has an excellent team behind him’.
