Aleix’s ‘spoiler’
Aleix Espargarò he had recently declared that the his successor in Aprilia it would have beenor “the strongest rider in the world“. Now his words take on a decidedly clearer meaning given that the Noale company has in fact made bombshell news official for the 2025 driver market: the hiring of Jorge Martin from Ducati.
The leap after the failed promotion
Martinator is the best friend of the current #41 of Aprilia and had said that he was no longer willing to wait for Ducati: either the official team, alongside Bagnaia, or escape. The sensational indiscretion according to which Borgo Panigale has finally decided to focus on Marc Marquez gave rise to the Aprilia-Martin agreement. Precisely the bond between Espargarò and Martin was exploited communicatively by Aprilia, which ensured that Aleix himself was the one to present his successor.
Aprilia ready to dream
For the Noale company this is a sensational coup: the Italian team brings the current world championship leader home and 2023 MotoGP world vice-champion. A talent who at the moment, together with the very young Pedro Acosta, seems to be the only one capable of always giving Bagnaia and Marc Marquez, at this point the new red couple, a hard time in the coming years.
