Enea Bastianini Joins Tech3 for 2025: Poncharal Eyes MotoGP Glory with Unbeatable New Recruit

Herve Poncharal believes Enea Bastianini is the top choice for Tech3 in the 2025 MotoGP season, describing him as "unbeatable" when conditions are perfect. Poncharal highlights Bastianini's exceptional performance in recent races, showcasing him as a strong contender for the championship title.

In 2025, Herve Poncharal's Tech3 team is set to greet Enea Bastianini into its ranks, following Pedro Acosta's move to the official KTM team.

This year, Acosta made an impressive entrance into the top tier by securing two podium finishes within his first three Grand Prix races. However, it's Tech3's soon-to-arrive racer, Bastianini, who has truly shone by clinching victory at the British Grand Prix in early August.

"Poncharal expressed his enthusiasm to TNT Sports before the Austrian Grand Prix last Sunday."

"I've been actively urging the entire management team at Pierer Mobility Group to reach a swift decision, and this was during Mugello. It was definitely at that point we realized Pedro Acosta was set to transition to the factory [KTM] team."

"I aimed for a robust roster, and in my view, Enea [Bastianini] represented the optimal choice for us."

"It's clear that when the stars align, his performance is unparalleled. His recent results in past races demonstrate he's a strong contender for the top spot."

These opportunities allow Tech3 to harbor some ambitions, though they also come with their own set of challenges.

"Poncharal openly admitted that they are eager for him to join their team next year with the #1 plate."

"However, without any illusions, we maintain our integrity: currently, there’s a significant amount of pressure on us to provide him with what he rightfully deserves, what he requires, and what he anticipates."

"He's arriving with what's known as the top technical setup in the field (Ducati Desmosedici GP24), and this holds significant importance."

"Just like in all aspects of life, the initial experience holds significant importance. Therefore, we're optimistic that after completing a few laps in Valencia, he will return to the pit, remove his helmet, and greet us with a broad smile."

Regarding the departing Acosta, despite experiencing a challenging weekend in Austria, Poncharal did not shy away from commending the two-time World Champion. He credits Acosta for contributing significantly to the Tech3 team's development this season.

"Absolutely, he has," Poncharal responded, confirming Acosta's contribution to the team's development when inquired.

Regarding media attention, there has been a significant increase compared to last year, marking the first major effect and a positive development.

"Furthermore, all individuals involved in this paddock are here not for employment purposes, but rather because we are driven by excitement and passion."

Our motivation and drive stem from the outcomes we achieve, and it's astonishing to reflect on how, since the beginning of the year, Pedro's contribution to our team has been nothing short of remarkable.

"It's crucial to emphasize and demonstrate to the leadership and engineering team at Pierer Mobility Group that they are moving in the right direction, even though there is still potential for further enhancements."

"His contribution to the entire project has been astonishing, far beyond what we anticipated from a newcomer."
