The Millionaire Racing Team have confirmed that Italian talent Nicholas Lapucci will remain with the team for the 2027 season, continuing to race Honda machinery.
In recent years, Lapucci has primarily focused on racing in Italy, but that is set to change for the upcoming campaign as he and the Millionaire Racing Team have confirmed plans to return to the international stage.
Lapucci to compete in European MXGP rounds
For 2027, Lapucci will compete aboard the new Honda CRF 450 R in the Italian Prestige Championship and the Internazionali d’Italia, while also making appearances in the MXGP World Championship at the European rounds.
It will certainly be nice to see Lapucci back competing at the highest level of motocross, particularly given his previous success on the international stage.
Former EMX250 champion returns to MXGP
Lapucci is no stranger to success, having claimed the EMX250 European Championship title back in 2021. The Italian has also demonstrated his speed and talent on numerous occasions, making his return to MXGP competition an exciting prospect.
With the Millionaire Racing Team continuing their partnership with Honda and Lapucci looking to take on a new challenge in 2027, it will be interesting to see what the Italian can achieve when he lines up against the world’s best at the European MXGP rounds.
The team posted the news on social media:
“Millionaire Racing Team – Honda Red Moto & Nicholas Lapucci together again for the 2027 season. Following the excellent results achieved during the 2026 season, we are preparing to tackle a new campaign filled with goals and determination”.
“Nicholas will ride the new HONDA CRF 450 R in the Italian Prestige Championship, the Italian International Championship, the MXGP World Championship in Europe, as well as a few wildcard appearances that you will discover throughout the season. See you at the track”.
