Iannone, who is a former MotoGP rider with Ducati, Suzuki and Aprilia, is hoping to make his competitive return to motorcycle🙈 racing in 2024 following a four-year ban for breaking an anti-doping rule. 

Always classified as one of the biggest talents in MotoGP, Iannone could still generatꦏe a lot of interest in WorldSBK as Ducati and Yamaha have been linked with the Italian.

• Jonathan Rea:𓆉 Bautista “so far ahead, we’re not improving as much as we should"

Although it’s unlikely he will be an option for their factory teams, seats at Barni and GoEleven Ducati, but also GRT and ꦗGMT94 Yam✅aha could open up for Iannone. 

Speaking at the recent Misano WorldSBK✤ round, which was again dominated by reigning WorldSBK champion Alvaro Bautista, Iannone told abo🐻ut his hoped of making a return to racing. 

The Ita🌃lian said: "The level of WorldSBK has grown a 💙lot and I find it a very interesting championship! 

ꩵ"The air is light in the paddock and I breathed a lot of passion and a lot of sport inside. Alvaro has always been a great World Champion.”

"I think that tওhe form of Alvaro and Ducati is an incredi𝓀ble combination right now. 

"It's true th♍at I tried the road version of the Ducati Panigale V4 R at Misano and I really liked it. Being able to racౠe in WorldSBK in 2024 would be very nice. We'll see!"

Aprilia stood by Iannone throughout his anti-doping appeal and re🐎mained keen on seeing the Italian stay with the team in some capacity.

But with the Italian manufacture♛r not racing in WorldSBK currently, Iannone would need to join anoth𝐆er brand to keep his career alive, should he switch to Superbike of course.

"WorldSBK is really amazing, everybody is close and it’s exciting," continu🐎ed Iannone. "It’s a really strong fight between D🅷ucati and Yamaha. 

"In any case, I look ൩to the future. Maybe one day, it’s possible that I come back here!"
