Filippo Farioli

Filippo Farioli (born 4 April 2005) is an Italian Grand Prix motorcycle racer who competes in the Supersport World Championship for VFT Racing. He previously competed in the Moto3 World Championship in 2022, 2023 and 2024.

Career Early career Born in Bergamo, Italy, Farioli comes from a well-established motorcycle racing family. His grandfather Arnaldo was a multiple-time Italian enduro champion, while his uncle Fabio won an Enduro World Championship in 1993. His father, Paolo, competed in supermoto. Farioli began riding motorcycles at the age of five, starting with motocross before switching to road racing around the age of 13.

In 2019, Farioli competed in the Italian CIV PreMoto3, where he claimed several wins, and finished third overall, behind Luca Lunetta. In 2020, he moved up to the European Talent Cup with Team Honda Laglisse. He opened the season with a fifth-place finish at Estoril, but missed the final two rounds at Valencia due to injury and placed 20th overall.

Farioli was selected to compete in the 2021 Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup, as well as the FIM CEV Moto3 Junior World Championship. He finished his debut season in the Rookies Cup in 15th place, with several top-ten finishes and a best result of seventh at Sachsenring. His best result in the FIM CEV Moto3 was an eleventh place at Jerez. For 2022, Farioli would switch to the Junior Aspar Team for the newly rebranded FIM JuniorGP World Championship, where he claimed his maiden win on home soil at Misano, along with five additional podiums, finishing third in the standings. That same year, he faced his second Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup season, where he claimed two podiums. Farioli made his Grand Prix debut as a wildcard at the final round in Valencia, finishing in 19th place.

Moto3 World Championship Tech3 Racing (2023) On 24 September 2022, Tech3 Racing announced Farioli would be stepping up to the 2023 Moto3 World Championship alongside Daniel Holgado. His rookie season in the World Championship was somewhat inconsistent; he scored points on four occasions, with a best finish of eighth at Malaysia.

Sic58 Squadra Corse (2024) Farioli switched teams for his second Moto3 season, joining Sic58 Squadra Corse, alongside fellow Italian rookie Luca Lunetta. This time on board of a Honda NSF250RW, he showed modest improvement, scoring points in more races, including two top-ten finishes, and a season-best result of ninth at Catalunya. Despite his gradual improvement, the team parted ways with Farioli at the end of the season.

Supersport World Championship MV Agusta Reparto Corse (2025) On 10 November 2024, it was announced Farioli would leave Moto3 to join the 2025 Supersport World Championship with MV Agusta Reparto Corse. He had a strong rookie season in the category, securing eight top-ten finishes, a pole position at Misano, and a best result of fourth at Balaton Park.

VFT Racing (2026) Shortly after the end of the 2025 season, VFT Racing announced Farioli would be joining their team for the 2026 season, aboard a YZF-R9.
