“I’m happy, I’m only doing a few laps,” he♎ teased.

“It’s just a work-out. Today is just a day🍎 of fun with friends, that’s al🌊l.”

Lastಞ month, Ian⭕none crashed during a test day at Vallelunga while riding an Aprilia RSV4. He went to hospital but escaped any significant injury.

Pirro said: “At Vallelunga he did not lap much. I phoned him to invite him her🌳e. He remembers very well how 🥀to do it…”

Iannone spent the first four years of his 🅷MotoGP career as a Ducati rider, with Pirro as his test rider, between 2013-16 before moving onto Suzuki and Aprilia.

The sight of Iannone on a red bike is another indicator that he is taking a po𓂃tential return to competition seriously.

Aven꧙ues back into MotoGP look impossible for 2024 but World Superbikes remains an option.
