Riccardo Rossi (born 21 March 2002) is an Italian motorcycle rider, currently competing in Moto3 for CIP Green Power.[1][2][3]

Career[edit]

Early career[edit]

His passion for motorcycles started early, with the first experiences in mini-moto and with the participation in the MiniGP Italian Championship. In 2015 it started to get serious and Riccardo took part to the CIV, in the PreMoto3 category, with the 125 of the SIC58 Team. The results were immediately reassuring, indeed he finished the season fourth. The following year, Riccardo moved to the RMU team, always in the CIV PreMoto3, ending the Championship with an excellent 2nd position. In 2017 it was time to grow and face more difficult and stimulating challenges. In that year Riccardo joined both the CIV and CEV Junior World Championship. It was an important season, where he could gain experience and start to know some of the most important tracks of the world. In 2018 Riccardo participated in the CIV, with the Gresini Racing Junior Team, and in the CEV Moto3, with the Laglisse Academy Team.

Moto3[edit]

In 2019 the Genoese rider made his debut in the Moto3 World Championship riding the Honda motorbike of Gresini. In 2020 and 2021 he continued his path in the same category but with the Boe Skull Rider Team. In 2022, Riccardo came back to SIC58, proving to have what it takes to compete with the best. His best result of 2022 was the podium (3rd position) in Thailand.

CIP Green Power (2024-)[edit]

From 2024 Moto3 season, Rossi was going to move to Prüstel GP, partnering with Xavi Artigas. But the team left the championship at the end of the 2023 season.[4]
