Yamaha rider Fabian Quartararo will be looking to return to winning ways at the
Emilia Romagna and Rimini's Coast Grand Prix on September 20.
The French star is coming off a disappointing race at the San Marino Grand Prix where he was forced to retire after crashing twice.
Quartararo has been unable to secure a podium finish in the last four races in the Czech Republic, Austria (twice) and San Marino.

The 2020 San Marino Grand Prix was won by Quartararo's teammate Franco Morbidelli, who clinched his maiden win of the season.
Ducati rider Francesco Bagnaia and Joan Mir of Suzuki finished second, and third respectively at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli.
Quartararo, who clinched successive CEV Moto3 titles in 2013 and 2014, has now slipped down to the second spot on the riders' standings.
Ducati rider Andrea Dovizioso is now sitting at the top of the standings, while his teammate Jack Miller is placed third.

Quartararo says he is looking forward to competing in Misano again as he looks to reclaim his place at the top of the standings.
"I was there to fight. I had the pace. I was too excited. Sometimes when you want something too much, you get too excited and make mistakes," he said.
"This is what I did today. Just I need to relax a little bit more on the bike in this kind of situation. We have a test on Tuesday and another race weekend next week.
"So I really can’t wait. Will be tough to wait until Friday the practice, but I’m happy because we have another race in Misano and I want to perform."
Yahama are sitting at the top of Manufacturers' Championship standings with 113 points.
Ducati and KTM are still placed second and third with 107 and 88 points respectively on the standings.
