MARCO BEZZECCHI AND JORGE MARTÍN UP TO THE CHALLENGE ON THE HISTORIC FRENCH TRACK
Aprilia Racing makes a stop in Le Mans on the historic Bugatti Circuit for the Grand Prix of France – the fifth round of the Grand Prix Motorcycle Racing Championship season.

Fresh from a streak of four consecutive podium finishes, Marco Bezzecchi is headed to France intent on improving his result from last season and confirming the competitiveness he has demonstrated during the start of this championship. After the intense weekend in Jerez, Jorge Martín is tackling the Le Mans round with the goal of further consolidating his feeling astride the RS-GP26.

The Bugatti Circuit in Le Mans stands out for its slow turns which alternate with fast sections featuring harsh braking and abrupt deceleration. The layout winds its way along 4,190 metres, with a total of 14 turns – 9 right-handers and 5 left-handers.

I’m extremely happy to be racing in Le Mans. It is a fantastic circuit and there are always a lot of fans. I’m quite keen to continue doing well, so we’ll try to put in a good weekend. We’ll be working with the team to be competitive throughout the weekend and to leave with a good race result.
I’m confident for this weekend. The Jerez tests were positive and now the goal is to confirm the progress made on different tracks as well. This will be highly important in order to validate the new technical solutions. I feel rather good physically, even better than in recent races, and I’m convinced that we’ll be able to take another step forward here.
