Jorge Martin retired from his Valencia MotoGP return on Aprilia’s instructions
Jorge Martin made the “intelligent decision” to end his MotoGP Valencia Grand Prix early after discussions with his Aprilia team before the race. Despite returning for the final round of the season after a collarbone injury, he qualified 17th and was near the top 10 before a mistake led him off track.
Carrying a penalty into the race, Martin deliberately ran off at Turn 1 to avoid incidents. He retired at the end of lap 14 to gather data and rest, as it was always the plan. Communication with the team led to the decision to stop due to fatigue and pain.
Even in his physical condition, Martin experimented with the bike’s set-up for future tests. He sees progress and aims to make significant improvements for the next season, willing to take risks for victory.
