Pramac was quick to established themselves as a title challenging satellite team with the likes of Jorge Martin tand Johann Zarco.

Zarco briefly led the world championship before finishing the 2021 season at fifth overall.

Zarcon and Martin combination also contributed to a total of eight podiums and five pole positions.

Speaking to the press, Pramac boss, Paolo Campinoti praised the arrival of Calabresi who has also been Pramac MotoE’s team manager since the start.

“Claudio’s growth within our team is the testimony of the esteem and confidence I have in him, and I am convinced that after three seasons as Team Manager in MotoE he will be up to this new and important challenge.

“We can’t wait to start this new adventure together, certain that Pramac Racing will be one of the top teams in the MotoGP and that next season will bring great satisfaction. The close collaboration with Fonsi will also guarantee us solid skills and experience from a sporting point of view,” he said.

Meanwhile, Calabresi expressed his desire to help the team ahead of the 2022 season.

“Now a new chapter opens for me, where curiosity, passion and experience will be at full disposal of the team, with the greatest commitment to remain one of the most competitive teams in MotoGP,” he added.

Pramac will continue to field Zarco and Martin ahead of the upcoming season starting with Sepang test in February.

Pramac Ducati’s Jorge Martin finally clinched his maiden MotoGP win at the Styrian GP on Sunday.

It was a sweet victory for the 23-year-old rider who previously missed out on four races due to a wrist injury sustained in Portugal.

Moreover, the Spaniard managed to overcome immense pressure from reigning world champion Joan Mir.

Nonetheless, the race was earlier shrouded by a red flag incident as a wildcard entry, Dani Pedrosa crashed and his KTM RC16 collided with Aprilia’s Lorenzo Salvadori.

 

After a thorough clean-up operation, the race was restarted with the original grid position.

Ducati MotoGP rider Jack Miller took the lead in the early stage before Martin managed to sneak through, followed by Mir.

Miller then found himself behind championship leader Fabio Quartararo in a battle for third place before the Australian lost his grip and crashed out.

As a result, Martin and Mir were left fighting for the win before the youngster took the chequered flag with a 1.5s lead ahead of the Suzuki rider.

MotoGP will return to action at the Red Bull Ring next week.
