168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jorge Martin will become an Aprilia rider for the 2025 MotoGP s🅷eason, however, a move to the factory Ducꦿati team looked almost certain at Mugello.

Martin was expected to be announced as 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Francesco Bagnaia’s team-mate before a change 🧸of heart took place from Ducati.

The Italian brand instead signed Marquez which left Martin perplexed given the infor🐻mation he had received.

Speaking in Assen, Martin said: “It’s dif🌼ficult to explain from my side. I spoke with Ducati after Montmelo and everything seemed quite clear.

“I didn’t want to speak about my futurꦅe during the weekend of Mꦆugello because I wanted to stay focused.

“On Sunday evening I saw tha⛄t it wasn’t that clear. I took a decision and also wanted to make sure of my fuꦕture in Mugello.

“Something or someone arrived and changed the i💫dea. It🍰’s a bit frustrating because after such a long time trying to go; it always seemed like I was never going to go and it never arrived.

“I wasn’t 100% convinced that I was going there because of that. But♉ things are🍬 meant to happen like they are meant to happen.”

Aprilia bike “super competitive”

While Martin still has more than half a ꧂season left with Duc🦩ati, optimism about his switch to Aprilia has already led many to ask what he can achieve.

Yes, it will be a new bike for the Spaniard, however, Aprilia has demonstrated that they can c🐷hallenge Ducati on a c🀅onsistent basis.

Martin himself is excited about the 💫challenge ahead: “It’s still really early. For sure, there is work going on trying to make a nice team for me next season.

“But I don’t want to go too deep into that point because ther🥃e’s still 12 races to go.

“After Valencia we will have time to be fꦕocused on that project, to adapt fast and to win. But as you can see, the bike ha🍨s been super competitive.

“In Austin, Maverick was on another level and the potential of the bike is really good. Let’s see ho🉐w I can do on that bike.”
