Thank you, Fabio

This one meant a great deal to us. Fabio Quartararo donated one of his own MotoGP helmets — an original from the start of the 2026 season, hand-signed — for a raffle in aid of the Foundation. Sylvain organised it, and it ran from 14 July to 16 August.

As of early November, the GiveWheel page was reporting £61,822.40 raised, with £1.85 in Gift Aid shown separately, and the Foundation named as the only charity it was for. MCN wrote about Fabio's donation at the time, too.

Here's the lovely irony of it. Motorbikes are how so many people find their way to Luca's story — but they were never his thing. For all he had a World Superbike champion for a dad, Luca was scared of anything with wheels and an engine. It's one of his legacies: Be exactly who you are — even in a house full of motorbikes. A reminder to let every child be exactly who they are.

The raffle has closed now. Thank you to Fabio for such a generous gift, and to everyone who took part or shared it along the way.
