Racing at Mugello

Team 52 Racing also celebrated another outstanding weekend in the Aprilia 457 Trophy. In extremely hot conditions at Mugello, with the race shortened to eight laps, Gabriel Vuono converted pole position into a dominant lights-to-flag victory, claiming his second win of the season.

Swiss rider Luca Giovannini delivered another impressive performance, finishing sixth after fighting in the group battling for the podium and setting his fastest lap during the race. Despite suffering from fever throughout the weekend, Jacopo Panero showed remarkable determination to finish seventh after a limited preparation.

Vuono’s victory marks Team 52 Racing’s second success in the Aprilia 457 Trophy and adds to the three wins already achieved by Gabriel Tesini in the Aprilia 660 Trophy, highlighting the outstanding work carried out by the team’s technical staff.

Team Principal Giacomo Luminari

Compared to last season, the 52 Racing project has grown significantly. Many talented riders have joined our programme and today we are competing across multiple disciplines, from motocross to road racing, in national and international championships, including World Championship events.

We are proud of this growth, but it also comes with great responsibility. Our main goal is not simply to achieve results, but to help every rider develop technically, professionally and personally by providing the best possible environment to reach their full potential.

The Aprilia 457 and Aprilia 660 Trophy programmes represent an outstanding platform for young riders to showcase their talent. Thanks to our experience in motorsport, we want to offer them a genuine pathway that can lead them, step by step, towards the highest levels of international racing and, ultimately, to the World Championship. This is the philosophy that drives Team 52 Racing every single day.”
