On Fridays of each Grand Prix, the MotoGP Safety Commission meets. In these meetings, riders can share their doubts, questions, and suggestions with the commissioners and organization.
However, unlike other sports and championships, there is no entity that represents the riders and their interests—such as the Grand Prix Drivers’ Association (GPDA) in Formula 1.
For several months, there has been talk about the possibility of MotoGP riders creating a sort of union—although it has never been officially stated that such a step is on the table.
Fabio Di Giannantonio, from Pertamina Enduro VR46, addressed this possibility. In statements to the website SPEEDWEEK.com, the Italian rider believes that a riders’ union would be beneficial for MotoGP as a whole:
– It wouldn’t be bad for the sport. Having a group of riders as a union that could help could also be good for the sport. Everyone wants to compete and fight against each other. We just want to share our ideas with the organizers to improve the sport together. I think it could be a great collaboration with Dorna.
