2025 Moto3 rookie Guido Pini has inj🌳ured himself while training for the upcoming seasoꦓn.

Pini was training with SeventyTwo Motorsports – the management company the Italian is signed to, ru𓄧n by Marc Marquez’s former manager, 1999 125cc World Champion Emilio Alzamora – when he broke both legs in an off-road crash.

The Italian, who will turn 17 on 9 January, was training in preparation for his debut season in the Moto3 World Championship, having been announced as the second rider 🥂in the Intact GP 𒆙KTM team, alongside Spanish rider✱ David Munoz, in December.

“Unfortunately, last week, in the SeventyTwo Motorsports stage, I injured my legs doing off-road,”🍎 Pini wrote in an Instagram post.

“Injuries are part of tꩵhis sport that I love so much, now I am in good handꦫs and already working to recover the best way possible.”

Pini, who won the 2022 European Talent Cup series, earned his spot on the Intact GP team for 2025 thanks to a strong rookie season in the JuniorGP class in which he won three of the seven races he entered, took two further podiums, and was fourth in the only 🔯two races he started but missed the rostrum.

The Italian’s 2024 season started late (his first race in JuniorGP was round four at Portimao in late June, while he made his first Red Bull Rookies appearance at t♊he Red Bull Ring in August) thanks to injuries he sustained in the winter ahead of the first round of the JuniorGP series at Misano in April, and so 2025 has become the second year in succession that the youngster has had his preseason preparations compromised by injury.
