LÓPEZ AND VIETTI WITH TEAM SPEEDUP FOR THE 2025 SEASON
Team SpeedUp is pleased to announce the arrival of Celestino Vietti with a two-year contract for the 2025/2026 seasons and the signing of Alonso López for the upcoming Moto2 season.
Vietti, an Italian rider originally from Cirié (TO) and raised in the VR46 Academy under the guidance of Valentino Rossi, made his debut in 2018 in the Moto3 World Championship. The following year, he earned the title of Moto3 Rookie of the Year at the age of 18, establishing himself as one of Italy’s promising talents. With nine podiums, including five victories in the intermediate class, Celestino will join Team SpeedUp aboard the Boscoscuro, seeking great results for the next two seasons under the guidance of Luca Boscoscuro.
Alonso López, the Spanish talent who has achieved numerous successes with Team SpeedUp since 2022, will continue for another season. Since joining the team, the number 21 rider has amassed fourteen podiums, including three wins, demonstrating competitiveness and strong determination. His experience with the Boscoscuro bike will be crucial for the title fight in the 2025 Moto2 World Championship.
