Marco Bezzecchi (Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team) has signed a multi-year contract with Aprilia Racing and will wear the team’s colors from 2025. This is an important step for the Noale manufacturer, which will have an Italian rider full-time in the premier class for the first time since Lorenzo Savadori’s MotoGP™ debut in 2020.
The return of a transalpine rider is an important step for the Italian Aprilia Racing team. In 2025, Marco Bezzecchi and Jorge Martín (Prima Pramac Racing) will form the Aprilia line-up, a duo capable of placing the Naole brand at the top of the MotoGP™ ranking.
From his debut in MotoGP™ in 2022, Marco Bezzecchi has demonstrated a certain talent and unfailing determination, qualities which have allowed him to achieve three victories, nine podiums, four pole positions, and above all to conquer the hearts of Italian fans.
Massimo Rivola, CEO of Aprilia Racing: “Welcome to one of the greatest Italian talents, who demonstrated his worth from his debut in the lower categories and especially last year in MotoGP™, with exceptional performances and even solo victories. We look forward to welcoming Bez to Noale. The Italian motorcycle-Italian driver duo is extremely exciting and the line-up that he will form with Jorge is even more so. Martín and Bezzecchi were our first choices because of their age, talent, courage and determination. With them, we can write an important new chapter in the history of Aprilia Racing.”
