MARCO BEZZECCHI AND JORGE MARTÍN ON THE TRACK, LORENZO SAVADORI PARTICIPATING AS WILD CARD
Aprilia Racing returns to the track for the fourth round of the season – the first in Europe – at the historic Circuito de Jerez – Ángel Nieto.

Marco Bezzecchi arrives in Spain with a series of consecutive wins under his belt earned in the first three long races, determined to confirm his competitiveness on the Andalusian track as well. Jorge Martín, one of the protagonists of the Austin weekend with the sprint race win and second place in the long race, tackles his home round with the goal of consolidating his good feeling on the RS-GP26.

Completing the line-up will be Lorenzo Salvadori, participating as a wild card and hard at work developing the RS-GP26.

Circuito di Jerez, named for Ángel Nieto, is one of the favourite rounds on the calendar. Stretching out over 4,423 metres, it consists in 13 corners – 8 right-handers and 5 left-handers – with numerous places to overtake.

I’m extremely happy to be returning to Europe. There are always lots of fans in Jerez and it’s a fantastic track. We have a strong desire to continue doing well, so we’ll try to have a good weekend, working as best we can together with the entire team and also trying to have fun.
After a great season start, it’s important to confirm those same sensations in Jerez as well. I can’t wait to get back on the track. This is my home race and lots of my fans will be there. It will be a demanding weekend because it has never been one of my best tracks, but I really want to confirm my form and keep working.
It’s nice to get back to doing a race weekend. We’ll have a few new solutions to test during the weekend with the goal of growing the RS-GP26. It will be important to collect as much information as possible so the updates can be implemented on the two factory riders’ bikes for the tests on Monday.
