Don’t miss this opportunity to meet Paolo Campinoti, Giacomo Agostini and Didier de Radiguès, three emblematic champions who have left their mark on motorcycling racing.


speaker

Paolo Campinoti

Paolo Campinoti has been the CEO of the Pramac Group since 1995. He led the transformation of the Pramac Group from a local Italian company to a leading power generation manufacturer with global brand recognition and presence. In 2002, Pramac entered the MotoGP World Championship with its Pramac Racing team. A pivotal moment came in 2005 when Pramac began its long-standing and fruitful partnership with Ducati. In 2023, Prima Pramac Racing made history by becoming the first independent team to win the MotoGP Teams’ Championship title.

speaker

Giacomo Agostini

Giacomo Agostini is widely regarded as the best rider of all time and his spectacular career in the second half of the 1960s and first part of the 1970s saw him become the first true world star of motorcycle racing. During his 14 years in the World Championship, the sensational Italian won 15 titles (eight in 500cc and seven in 350cc), earning a remarkable total of 122 Grand Prix victories. Agostini undertook his final season in 1977, having achieved Grand Prix victories in both the 350cc and 500cc classes the previous year - with his last-ever race win at Germany’s Nurburgring.
