A few weeks ago the collaboration that would take place between Italjet and the Gresini Racing of MotoGP, to give life to the special edition “Italjet Dragster Gresini Racing Edition” of the iconic Italian scooter. Massimo Tartarinipresident and CEO of the Italian firm, commented then:
“It is a great honor for us to be able to boast the qualification of Technical Sponsor of Team Gresini, a team that has already firmly established itself among the Top of MotoGP and with increasingly ambitious perspectives. The Gresini team is united by a solid collaborative relationship, in addition to sharing the same strong sense of belonging to the territory, the Italian Motor Valley.”

Now, thanks to the colleagues at Ride Apart, who have echoed several Italjet publications on their social networks, we already know what the final version of this special edition on the iconic Dragster is like. In addition, we already know that it will be offered in at least two different engine variants: 125 and 200 cc.
It is not the first time that the transalpine brand is a sponsor of a team within the different motor competitions. As they themselves explain in one of these online publications: “Italjet has a history of sponsoring top-tier racing teams in various motorsport disciplines, from Motocross to Formula 1. Notably, we sponsored the iconic pink McLaren F1 in the Le Mans 24-hour endurance race.”
That is why this Italjet Dragster Gresini Racing Edition It perfectly represents that competitive genetics that the brand's products always possess. Thanks, among other things, to the beautiful livery inspired by the one worn by the Márquez brothers' motorcycles this season in the Motorcycle World Championship.
