In 2024, Fabio Di Giannantonio chose to end his season prematurely, to have surgery on his left shoulder. After a heavy fall during the German Grand Prix, the Italian's limb prevented him from training properly, and seriously compromised his performance on the track.
He therefore made the choice to sacrifice his last two races of the year, in Malaysia and Barcelona, to be able to concentrate fully on 2025. A year full of challenges. Di Giannantonio will, in fact, be the third rider equipped with a Desmosedici GP25, which should be the best bike in the field.
He has therefore revised his ambitions upwards for the upcoming campaign, but to do this he must still be able to take advantage of his full physical form. On this side, things are progressing. In any case, this is what the Italian says on his social networks over the weeks, during this winter break.
After resuming training dedicated to shoulder mobility, the VR46 pilot had the opportunity to follow a program in the water. The latter began two weeks after the Barcelona tests, and was the second stage of his rehabilitation program.
Di Giannantonio in the times
At that time, Fabio Di Giannantonio announced that he had a lot of progress to make in order to turn the page. This week, there is much more joyful news that number 49 shared on his Instagram account.
In this new year, the main person seems to have had his fill of motivation when he declares: “This shoulder is coming back stronger. »
The deadlines for this return to form therefore seem to be respected while Di Giannantonio had promised to be present during the first runs of the year, even if he was not in top form. These will take place at the beginning of next month, in Sepang. Then, a few days later, near Buriram (Thailand).
As a reminder, his initial objective was to be 100% recovered from this mishap for the inaugural round of the season, which will also take place on the Buriram circuit. Where he ended his previous campaign.
