Suzy Perry says Aprilia think they can keep George Martin despite the Yamaha rumours.

It was widely reported during the winter break Yamaha had signed Martin. As for Fabio Quatararo as a marquee replacement, however, no announcement has been made.

Marco Bezecic’s championship lead is down to one point! Which Aprilia rider scores more points?

Apria doesn’t give up on keeping George Martin.

Ai Ogura bagged his first MotoGP podium at Le Mans, finishing third among the factory one-twos. In contrast, B is a bitter outcome. Apriliaboth riders seem bound to the Yamaha factory team.

It is said Aprilia signs Francesco Bagna To form the Italian dream team. Marco Bezecchi’s extension is the only deal officially announced this year.

And yet, base TNT Sports Host Perry, Aprilia are still refusing to accept the loss of Martin, their 2024 signing.

“The rumor is that George Martin is going to Yamaha, and Ai Ogura as well,” she said. “If you talk to Aprilia, you think they might be able to keep Jorge, but we think Peco has signed for Aprilia.

Does George Martin regret leaving Aprilia to join Yamaha?

“Don’t they all fit?”

Ogura’s departure will open up a spot at Trackhouse, but it is unlikely that Martin will leave the Ducati stable and join the satellite team to maintain factory status. Aprilia is not expected to offer other teams from 2027 onwards.

George Martin’s move to Yamaha could be announced within days.

By all accounts, the only reason Martin’s move to Yamaha hasn’t been announced is because the teams haven’t signed a commercial deal for 2027 and beyond.

As it stands, none of them have officially committed to compete in the sport next year, so announcing their line-up would be a matter of time.

still, Yamaha Director Massimo Meregalli hinted to TNT that there could be news on Martin and Ogura in the coming days at Le Mans.

Yamaha played hardball on the deal. With commercial rights holders, however, Meregali’s comments may indicate that progress is imminent.
