OFFICIAL: ROSSI ATTILA MOOR To Race In The Moto2 Category Of The FIM JuniorGP World Championship In The 2025 Season!
At the last round of the FIM JuniorGP, hosted in beautiful Portugal at Estoril Circuit, the Révész Racing Next Generation Riders Team’s Rossi Attila Moor finalized his 2025 program.
The young, 17-year-old American-Hungarian talent signed a full-season contract with Massimiliano Morlacchi of Team MMR, according to which we will see Rossi competing in the Moto2 category of the JuniorGP World Championship in 2025.
The decision was made jointly by the Hungarian-licensed Revesz Racing Next Generation Riders Team, Rossi, his father István (a.k.a. Steve) and his manager Stefano Favaro.
They did not have a difficult task, as during the two wild card races (at Aragon and Estoril) Rossi was able to work in the greatest harmony with professionals such as Technical Director Alessandro Finelli (ex VR46), Chief Mechanic Ayrton Badovini (former STK1000 World Champion), and mechanics Jorge, Simone, and Guglielmo, with whom they understood each other even on a half-word basis.
The human factor was given great emphasis in the selection, as in Massimiliano Morlacchi they met a professional who leads his team with great expertise and consistency, and considers every member of his team as a family member.
Rossi was also supported in the selection by Massimo Rivola, Team Principal of Aprilia Racing MotoGP, who works closely with the MMR team.
We would like to thank John and Chris Ulrich, the owners of Team Hammer, for allowing Rossi to spend the entire 2024 season in the MotoAmerica TwinCup category and for releasing him before the end of his contract to pursue his dream of racing in MotoGP.
The 2025 FIM JuniorGP Championship will consist of 7 rounds, with a total of 10 races for the Moto2 category riders.
The first round will be held in Estoril on the weekend of 2-4 May 2025.
The contract, in addition to the 13 days of testing required by the regulations, also includes a 5-day private test period in Spain from March 2025.
The agreement also includes a fantastic opportunity for Rossi Attila Moor to optionally participate in the 2025 MotoGP World Championship as a Wild-Card in the Moto2 category at three races.
Rossi will continue to be supported on his path to MotoGP by Révész Racing, owned by Bálint Révész, a big fan of motorsports, who considers the young rider to be one of the greatest emerging talents.
Rossi Moor: "I am very happy that in the last two races of the FIM JuniorGP Moto2 in 2024 I was able to show that I deserve a place in the team, and I would like to thank the entire MMR Team for the trust they have shown in me for the future. My preparation program for the next season starts next week and I am very lucky that all this will happen in Spain, where I currently live with my family and manager. I would also like to thank John and Chris Ulrich for giving me the opportunity to continue my career in MotoGP.
"I would also like to thank Mr. Bálint Révész and Stefano Favaro, who worked very hard to make this happen and supported me in my racing career. Last but not least, I would like to thank my father, my brother and all the members of my management. "
John Ulrich: "We closely watched Rossi in MotoAmerica MiniCup and Junior Cup and he is a uniquely talented motorcycle racer. He is the latest young star to get his professional career launched with Team Hammer and we look forward to following his progression on the world stage. Go Rossi!"
Stefano Favaro: "I think that today is a very important step for Rossi's sporting career, after all he deserves it. For my part, I tried to find the optimal situation for him, both technically and personally, and the best choice was the MMR Team. I consider MMR to be a very professional team, made up of excellent professionals. I would like to thank my friend Bálint Révész for the trust he placed in me and in Rossi"
