A tumultuous few weeks for Aprilia began with the Noale factory losing its ‘Captain’168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Aleix Espargaro to retirement in 2025.

Then came the coup of signing title leader 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jorge Martin from Pramac Ducati as Espargaro’s replacement, only for current race winner 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Maverick Vinales to pledge his future with Tech3 KTM.

The final piece of the Aprilia factory team puzzle is now complete with multi 2023 race winner 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marco Bezzecchi agreeing to take Vinales’ place next season.

Speaking on the latest wuqian0821.com MotoGP podcast, jus🦂t before the official announcement of the Bezzecchi-Aprilia deal, MotoGP editor Pete McLaren said:

“The Bezzecchi deꦫal, whic☂h we're all expecting, makes sense.

“Bezzecchi has always said he🐟 wants to be a factory rider and this is the last competitive ‘race-winning’ factory seat still available for♌ 2025.

“The Ducati team seats are full for the n🌠ext two years, the same for KTM. Martin has one of the Aprilia rides and this is the other.

“So it's Be♚zzecchi’s big chance and I think he’s got to take it.

“I know there are people that might say ⛎he could get a factory-spec Ducatiꦚ at VR46 next year, if Pramac move to Yamaha and Ducati redistribute those bikes.

“But I think even then, if you really want to be a fu𒉰ll factory MotoGP rider, this is th💦e chance. 

"It ticks all the boxes if you areꦇ Marco Bezzecchi.

“Maybe the deal is already done and we’re just waiting for the ann🌠ounceme𒀰nt…

“But it makes sense for me and let’s see what Bezzecchi can do this weekend at Assen, where he was second to Fra🐻ncesco Bagnaia last year.

“And for Aprilia this weekend, we know🐷 their bike has been really good in the highspeed corners through the final sector at Assen.

“Unfortunately, they seem to have lost a bit of that corner speed to improve th𝕴e hard braking performanඣce this year. And there are no huge braking areas at Assen.

“So it’ll be interesting to see how that plays 𒆙out, especially in that final sector where Aleix has been so good in the pastಞ on the RS-GP.

“And of course, Trackhouse 🎐rider Raul Fernandez will still be on the ‘23 bike, so he might be one to watch through there.”
