Simone Mancini and Fantic claim 2024 Rookies Cup Title

Fantic Factory Racing EMX125’s Simone Mancini is the new 125cc Rookies Cup Champion! In Castiglione del Lago, he secured another brilliant double victory aboard his Fantic XX 125, sealing a perfect championship with three overall wins out of three rounds.

Coming off two victories in Montevarchi and Ponte a Egola, Simone Mancini went into the Rookies Cup final with the championship leader’s red plate firmly on his Fantic XX 125. The 17-year-old Italian put on a masterclass performance in Castiglione del Lago, setting the fastest lap time in his qualifying group and leading every lap in both races to secure the win.

The Fantic Factory Racing EMX125 rider clinched the title with the perfect score, winning all three rounds of the highly competitive series for young and promising riders on their 125 cc machines, held alongside the Italian Motocross Prestige Championship.

Following the stunning 1-2 finish by Noel Zanocz and Simone Mancini at the Junior World Championship, this is yet another success for the Fantic XX 125 in what has been a season to remember. And the story is far from over, as the fight for the EMX125 title will be decided at the MXGP of Castilla la Mancha in Spain at the end of the month.

Simone Mancini:

“I am very happy to say that we are the 2024 Rookies Cup Champions, and I am very pleased with how we secured this title. I won three races out of three and five motos out of six, with a second place in the first round at Montevarchi. The Rookies Cup was one of our main goals for the season, and I am very happy to have brought it home. I would like to thank Fantic, my entire team and everyone who always supports me – thank you all!”
