He will be competing in the MotoE World Cup on an Energica Ego Corsa in 2019. His paternal grandfather, of Italian descent was born in Lentini (Province de Siracusa).
After a disappointing 2003, Di Meglio made a vow to make a comeback. For the 2004 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season, he signed for Globet.com Racing with Aprilia along Gino Borsoi.

The high point of the season for the Frenchman was his controversial win at the Turkish Grand Prix, when Mika Kallio crashed and race leader Luthi had run wide to avoid him.
He joined the Fédération Française de Motocyclisme’s world championship team run by Alain Bronec for 2006. The FFM Honda GP 125 team also provided him with a factory bike just like the previous season, but despite his big ambitions and a factory bike, he suffered an injury, and scored in only four races that resulted in eight points. He left the team immediately for Team Scot the following year after Portugal as the result of his performance with the team.
The Federation Francaise de Motocyclisme (French Motorcycle Federation 2002 Prix de l’Avenir) first brought Di Meglio to their attention.
