Fabio Di Giannantonio, who finished 4th in the Brno race, said 'the world championship is fully back open' (Moto.it). With two 4th-place finishes over the weekend, he banked solid points and cut the gap to the championship leader to 23 points. He also joked he'd race the next round wearing Valentino Rossi's helmet, showing both genuine confidence and confidence to spare.

Wrapping up a weekend with two 4th places — not flashy, but that's the smart way to fight a championship. Don't crash, and bring points home reliably. Closing to a 23-point gap really is 'completely back in it.' The joke about Rossi's helmet is also proof he's not carrying tension in his shoulders. Whoever tenaciously survives a chaotic fight is the one who laughs last.

Having the room to joke about it is itself a sign of how much confidence he has in his current form.

The joke about racing in Rossi's helmet — curious what the actual backstory to that is.

A helmet-design collab with Rossi has probably been a commemorative thing several riders have done before.

A 23-point gap is still sizable, so it's more like coming into range realistically than a full resurgence.

Still, it's a gap that could close in a single race, so depending on how things go he could suddenly be right in the hunt.

'The championship's fully back on' — sounds like the words of a rider riding real momentum, reassuring.

Di Giannantonio's form is really climbing — looks like he's set to properly get involved in the title fight.

Two 4th-place finishes closed the gap to the leader down to 23 points — feels like he's steadily stacking up points.
