Aprilia: Overseas MotoGPs “like a test” for Jorge Martin
“We consider the first four races in the overseas as a test for Jꦇorge”

A nightmare start to MotoGP pre-season testing means reigning champion 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jorge Martin will begin the new world championship at Buriram next week✤end having ridden his new Aprilia for just 13 laps.
Martin, who made history as the first satellཧite rider to win the title in the ‘MotoGP’ era at Pramac Ducati last year, suffered hand and foot fractures in the opening hours of the Sepang test.
The right-hand damage required surgery, forcing Martin to skip the final pre-season outing at Buriram, where team-mate Marco Bezzecchi impressed with third🌌 on the timesheets and a fast Sprint 🎃simulation.
“After the Sepang injury we had to redefine our plan,” Aprilia team manager Paolo Bonora told MotoGP.com. “We had many things 𓂃to test, so at the end, luckily, we did all the job. We finished all our test plan, all our long, long, lon🐎g test list.
“For sure Marc𒀰o did a very great job. He defined his base setup, electronic side and chassis side. And having [test rider] Lorenzo Savadori helped us ꧑a lot to define all the parts that we can bring to Jorge.
“We are waiting for Jorge because it is necessary to bring to him, for the first race, the base set up that we found during this winter. We hope that during the first ꦦrace, he will immediately find confidence with the bike.
“At the moment, his medi🎶cal recovery plan is fully under control. He is finding [each] day a better and better feeling. So we are looking forward to having him ♉with us as soon as possible.”
Jorge Martin slow start to 2025 racing
But 𒐪Bonora concedes that hundreds of lost testing laps can’t be easil🌞y overcome.
As such, they’ll treat tജhe opening rounds as a test for Martin.
“To be fully honest with you, we consider the first four races in the overseas as a test for Jorge because he lost the opportꦰunity to test during Sepang and Buriram,” Bonora explained.
“And in Mot🦂oGP when you jump from one bike to a new one, you have 🔴to find the confidence.
“It will notꦉ be easy but we will put all our energy to help him⛄.
“We have seen that Marco immediately felt the confidence he🐟re in Buriram so this gives us more confidence to bring to Jorge a good bike.”
The first of Martin’ꦯs home Spanish rounds, at Jerez, kicks off t🌜he European leg of the MotoGP season from April 27-29.
