Davide Brivio insists he’s “very happy” with Ai Ogura’s rookie MotoGP season: “He has a working method which will bring him far.”
Ai Ogura’s rookie MotoGP season started off strong with a fourth-place finish at the Sprint in Thailand, but momentum dwindled later.
Despite finishing fifth in the grand prix, he was disqualified in Argentina due to a software issue, allowing Fermin Aldeguer to take control of the Rookie of the Year battle with two podiums.
Injuries – a leg fracture at Silverstone and a hand injury at Misano – further hampered Ogura’s progress.
Returning for the last four rounds, his best result was seventh at Portimao, ending the season in 16th place overall.
Ogura’s methodical approach and future potential have left Team Principal Davide Brivio optimistic about his progress in MotoGP, anticipating greater success in the coming seasons.
