Controversial Italian Romano Fenati and current team-mate Alonso Lopez will remain with Max Biaggo’s Husqvarna team for the 2021 Moto3 season.
Fenati currently sits on the edge of the top ten in the 2020 series standings from his eighth season in Moto3 and has scored points in eight Grands Prix during his first term on the Husqvarna FR 250 GP.
Most memorably the 24-year old Italian rode to the brand’s maiden victory at Misano in September; the twelfth of his career. He has since increased his competitiveness to place the distinctive white and blue motorcycle near the front of the action-packed category in the second half of the 2020 campaign.
Lopez has shown a fierce ability for impressive race starts and has improved his qualification performances as 2020 has developed. The 18-year old is nearing the conclusion of his third Grand Prix season and the highlight so far has been 5th position at the Gran Premi de Catalunya. The Spaniard has posted GP points on four occasions.
“Things have been progressing much better in terms of performances because Romano became more confident and started to race like we expected; the win was of course something that made us very happy,” said team boss Biaggi.
“Alonso had some promising races, so it was our priority to confirm these riders and go again next season. Alonso is still young and Romano - together with our group and all the experience - we know is capable of much better results. We haven’t seen the best of the combination yet but I think we will in 2021: that’s my biggest hope.”
