Amendments have been made to the MotoGP rules regarding testing, with injured riders nowᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ allowe♔d to test if they meet certain requirements.

The rules now state that permanent MotoGP riders who miss at least three events are allowed to 🃏test before returning to a race weekend.

In this case, an event is defined as eith๊er a MotoGP race weekend or an official test with a duration of m🔯ore than one day.

Riders who have missed more than three successive events are now allowed a single on🌟e-day test before returning to race.

The test must be carried out at a circuit eligible to the rider’s manufacturer based on their concessions status, or on any circuit where there is no MotoGP race scheduled for the remainder of the current 🍬season. The test must also not take place less than eight weeks ahead of a MotoGP event on that circuit.

The tyres used on the test will be a part of the manufacturer’s test team allocation for that season, with a maximum of three sets available for the 🐭test.

It’s also notable that one-day post-race tests are defined as part of the preceding race weekend; for example the recent Monday test at Jerez is defined as being a part of the Spanish Grand Prix weekend. It means that a rider could not take part in the upcoming post-race test at Aragon the day after the♛ Grand Prix there and then complete another one-day test, because participating in the post-race test will effectively count as having taken part in the Grand Prix we🐬ekend and therefore a MotoGP event.

Aprilia gets its wish

The rule change was initially proposed by 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Aprilia Racing and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jorge Martin when the reigning MotoGP Champ🎉ion was present at the Grand Prix of the Americas in April.

Aprilia Racing and Martin had suggested that the rules should bℱe changed to allow permanent riders who have missed a number of events i🔯n succession through injury to test a MotoGP bike before returning to a race weekend in order to familiarise themselves with the demands of a MotoGP bike.

In Martin’s specific case, such a test would also allow him to familiarise himself specifically with the Aprilia RS-GP, which he rode for only one full day at Barcelona last November – 💧♛two days after winning the 2024 title on the Pramac Ducati – before his preseason was cut short on the opening day of the Sepang Test in February.

Martin could be set to benefit from the rule change later this year, having broken several ribs and suffered a pneumothorax on his return to racing at the Qatar Grand Prix. The Spaniard missed the Spanish Grand Prix, and if he misses the races in France and Britain he will be eligible for a onܫe-day test before returning to racing.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Miguel Oliveira, wh🔴o has missed the Grand Prix of the Americas, the Qatar Grand Prix, and the Spanish Grand Prix, is now eligib𓄧le to take part in one of these newly allowed one-day tests for injured riders.
