Aprilia’s MotoGP Rise Enters Proving Phase at Sepang

Aprilia attributes its surge to Noale‑driven RS‑GP upgrades, with race‑weekend testing accelerating development.

Overview

  • Marco Bezzecchi has climbed to third in the championship with seven Grand Prix podiums for Aprilia and says improved braking stability has delivered consistency.
  • Raúl Fernández claimed his first MotoGP victory at Phillip Island, reinforcing the RS‑GP’s step forward.
  • Test rider Lorenzo Savadori says Jorge Martín’s injury layoff enabled side‑by‑side updates on four Aprilias during race sessions, producing faster comparative data.
  • Technical director Fabiano Sterlacchini and the Noale engineering group are credited by team leaders and riders with meaningful performance gains.
  • Ducati still tops the constructors’ table 671–345, and Sepang along with Valencia are being treated as all‑round benchmarks to confirm whether Aprilia’s momentum holds.
