Apria has to keep George Martin in Francesco Bagnaia in 2027
The winning team in 2026 is Aprilia, having won all but one race so far. Marco Bezecchi looks to be the rider in control, but now Martin is starting to stamp his authority.
The 2024 champion dominated the French Grand Prix, winning the sprint and Sunday’s race on the third row of the grid. Now, Martin is a point behind Bezecchi and a clear title contender, but not quite the same. Bagnaya.
of Ducati The rider’s woes continue from 2025, having completed just two races since winning at Motegi last year. Bagnaia is missing in Borgo Pangale clothes, Martin is growing in Aprilia – the team and the bike are going to go.
However, it seems that they are not willing to let Noale’s clothes go easily. At Le Mans, Suzy Perry thinks Aprilia can still keep MartinAlthough he signed a contract with Yamaha.
Is Aprilia making a mistake in signing Francesco Bagna for 2027?
Now, as a matter of fact, the speculation since then may have been innumerable. But again, because of the delay with the Concorde deal, no one really knows what was signed between Apria and Bagnaia, and Yamaha and Martin.
The reality is that Martin is already proving that he is in better shape than Bagnaia and can be a serious threat to Aprilia. Massimo Rivola and the rest of the team don’t want to let him go to the opposition if there is a chance to keep him tight.
Max Biaggi said Martin was ‘really dominant’ at Le Mans.And it’s not just adapting to the RS-GP, it’s starting to get the best of Bezecchi. If there is a way to do it, Apria should look into the situation so that it doesn’t go away easily.
The difficulty is that this will have a big impact on the driver market, not to mention the legal issues. Pedro Acosta has signed for Ducati next to Marc Marquez in 2027, and they certainly don’t want to go back there, especially in Bagnaia’s form.
According to the agreement, this is the possible solution Martin goes to the truck house And Bagnaia keeps the seat of Aprilia, or vice versa. Whatever the case may be, Noale’s outfit should consider backing down to sign the Italian and keep the potential 2026 world champion in their ranks.
