Romano Fenati (born 15 January 1996) is an Italian motorcycle racer who competed in the FIM Road Racing World Championship between 2012 and 2023 in the Moto3 and Moto2 categories.

He was European 125 cc Champion in 2011,[1] championship runner-up of the Italian 125GP series, and also competed in the Spanish 125GP series.

Romano Fenati competed in Moto3 beween 2012 and 2023, winning thirteen races. He raced in Moto2 in 2018 and 2022, each time being released by his teams before season end. He finally left Moto3 after the 2023 season as he had reached the maximum permitted age of 28 years old.

Fenati's conduct has led to disciplinary action from teams and authorities. Amongst these is an incident during a Moto2 race in September 2018, when he pulled alongside rival Stefano Manzi at speed, reached across and grabbed Manzi's front brake lever. This dangerous action was punished by Fenati's racing licence being revoked for the rest of the season and by termination of his contract with the Marinelli Snipers team.[2][3][4]
