It was with great surprise that the announcement came this afternoon: Jorge Martín has signed a multi-year contract with Aprilia, where he will move to starting from the 2025 MotoGP season.
Thus, the rider leaves behind Ducati – there are unconfirmed rumors that the Borgo Panigale manufacturer has backed out of its intentions to promote the current championship leader to the factory team, opting for Marc Márquez instead.
True or not, what is certain is that Martín will be at Aprilia, after four years on a Pramac Ducati. Aprilia Racing’s CEO, Massimo Rivola, spoke about this signing, implying that the agreement was reached between yesterday and today:
– An unstoppable growth path, Jorge is a cornerstone for us to achieve the goal we have been eagerly seeking at Aprilia Racing. Thanks to Dr. Michele Colaninno for this opportunity, we spoke last night and decided without wasting time.
