Miguel Oliveira will start the 2024 MotoGP preseason with a current Aprilia bike. The rider remains in the constructor’s satellite team, which is now Trackhouse Racing.
The CEO of Aprilia Racing, Massimo Rivola, confirmed this in an interview with the Mister Helmet podcast: ‘Being in December is a problem to give an official bike to both riders. However, what we will do is give Miguel a 2024 bike – with all the problems we may have, especially at the beginning‘.
However, Raúl Fernández will have to wait a little longer, according to the Italian: ‘Since we close the containers in mid-January, we won’t be able to be at the Sepang tests with two complete bikes. But we plan to have two complete bikes for them at the first race as well‘.
