Romano Fenati
Romano Fenati (born 15 January 1996) is an Italian former motorcycle racer who competed in the FIM Road Racing World Championship between 2012 and 2023 in the Moto3 and Moto2 categories.
He was European 125 cc Champion in 2011, championship runner-up of the Italian 125GP series, and also competed in the Spanish 125GP series.
Fenati competed in Moto3 between 2012 and 2023, winning thirteen races. He raced in Moto2 in 2018 and 2022, each time being released by his teams before season end. He finally left Moto3 after the 2023 season as he had reached the maximum permitted age of 28 years old.
Fenati's conduct has led to disciplinary action from teams and authorities. Amongst these is an incident during a Moto2 race in September 2018, when he pulled alongside rival Stefano Manzi at speed, reached across and grabbed Manzi's front brake lever. This dangerous action was punished by Fenati's racing licence being revoked for the rest of the season and by termination of his contract with the Marinelli Snipers team.
Fenati is amongst the riders appearing in the 2016 documentary film Il Mago Mancini ("Mancini, the Motorcycle Wizard") that describes the accomplishments of rider and constructor Guido Mancini.
For the 2012 Moto3 season, Fenati signed with Team Italia FMI riding an FTR Honda. At Round 1 in Qatar, he finished 2nd in his debut race. He then went on to claim his first victory at the second race of the season in Jerez, Spain. In doing so, Fenati became the first rider since Noboru Ueda in 1991 to take two podiums in his first two Grand Prix starts and the youngest ever rider in Grand Prix motorcycle racing history to lead the World Championship. He finished 6th in the championship.
The 2013 season was disappointing for Fenati as he did not record any podium finishes, with his best position being 5th. He finished 10th in the final championship standings, with 73 points.
For the 2014 Moto3 season, Fenati signed with Valentino Rossi's Sky Racing Team by VR46. It was an up and down season for Fenati, as he scored four podiums in the first six races and ultimately recorded four wins during the season. However, inconsistent results ultimately left him in 5th position in the championship with 176 points.
