Andrea Iannone expects improved performances as part of his continuation wiဣth the Go Eleven Ducati team in the 2025 World Superbike season.

Iannone joined the Go Eleven team th🥂is year after serving a ban from motorcycle racing which concluded at the beginning of this year.

It’s been a solid d♎ebut WorldSBK season for the former Grand Prix rider, culminating in a maiden WorldSBK race win in Race 1 at the Aragon Round three weeks ago.

Iannone explained that continuing with Go Eleven, a move that was annoꦰuncﷺed earlier this week, comes with technical assurances, as well as improved technical support from Ducati.

“It’s good news f💙or me and also for the team,” Iannone 🦩told WorldSBK.com.

“This was my priority, I wanted to remain in this 🦋paddock. The racing here is amazing.

I think it’s the best choice for me for next year and we’l🦹l try to improve things compared to this year. Next year, we’ll have mor♛e potential.

“My management worked to improve the level a 🅷bit. I think we gave a bit more support from Ducat🎀i.”

Improved technical support, ✃as well as Iannone’s obviously increased experience in 2025 compared to his debut campaign this year, means the Italian is expecting improved results.

“My target f💟or next year is to improve everything a little bit, we have everything to be stronger,” he said.

“I always wღant to improve, always be on the podium, but it’sꦏ not easy.

“My dream is to fight for the first position i𒁃n every race or the podium. It isn’t easy, the level is really high here.”

Thinking about this weekend’s final♐ 2024 round in Jerez, Iannone said: “I’m confident. In Race 2 at Estoril, I enjoyed it a lot; it was un𒁃believable, completely crazy.

“I really enjoyed, for the first time this year, the feeling with the bike like this. It was for eighth position, but we fought for fif꧂th.”
