Andrea Iannone’s future in the WorldSBK series is still up in the air as the 2024 season winds down. The ongoing contract negotiations with the Go Eleven Ducati team have left his plans for the 2025 season uncertain. Iannone has made it clear that he is seeking a factory-spec bike for the upcoming season, adding to the complexity of the situation.
Despite the desire from the Go Eleven Ducati team to continue their partnership with Iannone, no agreement has been reached yet. This uncertainty has even led Iannone to question whether he will be able to participate in the post-race test after the season finale at Jerez. In an interview with WorldSBK.com, he expressed his uncertainty about the future, stating that nothing has been signed yet.
The Italian rider remains hopeful that a decision will be made soon, hinting that an announcement may come in the coming days or weeks. This uncertainty has not dampened his spirits, as he heads to Estoril following his first WorldSBK win at Aragon. Reflecting on his success, Iannone acknowledged the hard work his team has put in and expressed his desire for more victories in the future.
Looking back on his performance at Aragon, Iannone noted that while he was pleased with the win on Saturday, he struggled on Sunday. Despite this setback, he remains focused on his goals and is determined to achieve more success in the coming seasons. The road ahead may be uncertain, but Iannone is ready to face whatever challenges come his way.
As he prepares for the Estoril World Superbike round, Iannone remains optimistic about his future in the sport. While the contract negotiations may be ongoing, he is determined to keep pushing forward and working towards his goals. The upcoming races will be crucial for Iannone as he looks to solidify his place in the WorldSBK series and continue his pursuit of victory.
