Special ‘Racing Fluid’ Look Unveiled for Fantic and NILS at Home MXGP Round
Fantic Factory Racing MXGP stars Andrea Bonacorsi and Glenn Coldenhoff will hit the track in a special edition livery at the MXGP of Trentino, round five of the 2025 FIM Motocross World Championship, to celebrate the home Grand Prix for both Fantic and its official partner, NILS – Experts in Lubricants.
Riding the momentum of a sensational start to the season with three podium finishes in the first four rounds – two for Glenn Coldenhoff, currently sitting third in the Championship standings, and one for Andrea Bonacorsi – Fantic is gearing up for the next highlight on the calendar: the Italian brand’s home round at Arco di Trento.
To mark the occasion, the Factory Fantic XXF 450 machines will feature a striking new livery inspired by the colours of official partner NILS, the South Tyrolean manufacturer of premium high-performance lubricants. The fluid, dynamic design – also reflected in the one-off gear created in collaboration with Shot – captures the movement of oil: a visual tribute to the synergy and shared passion that unite Fantic and NILS. This eye-catching graphic tells a story of performance, smoothness and determination – perfectly aligned with the spirit of the Fantic Factory Racing MXGP team.
Unfortunately, the Fantic #189 of Brian Bogers will remain in the pits, as the Dutch rider is still recovering from sickness. In agreement with the team, the decision was made to sit out the MXGP of Trentino to allow him to fully recover.
“We are very much looking forward to lining up at our home GP, especially after the outstanding results we have achieved in the premier class of motocross at the start of this season – results that have exceeded even our most optimistic expectations,” said Mariano Roman, Head of Racing and Vice President of Fantic Motor. “Stepping onto the MXGP podium is a huge source of pride for us – the result of passion, expertise, professionalism, and strong dedication from everyone at Fantic. The Trentino GP is the perfect occasion to share this fantastic moment with our partners, friends and staff. Since this is also a home race for NILS – their first as Fantic’s official partner – we liked the idea of highlighting this important collaboration with a special livery, reflecting the energy and enthusiasm we have felt since day one of this 360-degree partnership. As always, our whole team will give its all to honour these colours.”
“It is a great pleasure for us to be here in Arco di Trento and to present this collaboration at such an iconic venue for our sport,” added Maximilian Flarer, CEO of NILS S.p.A. “Our home GP is the ideal opportunity to unveil the new special Fantic x NILS livery to the public – a fusion of style, technology, and passion that celebrates the connection between the two brands and the world of motorcycling. This project is not only the result of a winning synergy – it also sends a clear message to all the fans: the best is yet to come!”
In addition to the spectacular race action on track – which will also feature the rising talents from the EMX125 and EMX250 European Championships – Fantic will be present in the commercial area of the circuit, where fans will be able to see the special livery on display.
Don’t miss the meet & greet with local hero Andrea Bonacorsi and his Fantic Factory Racing MXGP teammate Glenn Coldenhoff, taking place at the Fantic stand on Saturday at 12:30.
