Aprilia Faces Challenges at MotoGP Sepang Testing

The MotoGP testing at Sepang proved challenging for Aprilia as reigning champion Jorge Martin suffered a crash, sidelining him and impacting the team’s development of the new RS-GP25 bike. In response, Lorenzo Savadori stepped up to fulfill testing and reserve rider duties, expressing optimism about progress made, particularly in braking performance and overall bike dynamics. However, Savadori acknowledged the need for further improvements in aerodynamics and electronics, specifically addressing ongoing challenges with tire performance and bike efficiency in varying temperatures.

Marco Bezzecchi, while not directly affected by Martin's crash, shared insights about his growing confidence on the bike, noting advancements in braking and aerodynamics during the testing process. Despite the injury setbacks, both Savadori and Bezzecchi remain focused on providing valuable feedback for the bike’s continued evolution, indicating they are on the right track toward enhancing the RS-GP25’s performance in the competitive MotoGP environment.
