P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Aprilia MotoGP Technical Director Romano Albesiano reckons that a lack of understanding of the current Michelin tyres is the main
The 2023-specification RS-GP of Italian marque has shown potential with two emphatic victories by Aleix Espargaro at Silverstone and Barcelona, but the team has struggled for speed at most venues since then. Espargaro’s two victories are his only podium finishes this year, with one being inherited due to a penalty. Teammate Maverick Vinales has had a similarly inconsistent season with three runner-up finishes. Aprilia’s lack of understanding of Michelin’s premier class rubber and poor starts have been issues throughout the year. The team has made improvements, but still needs to focus on preparing well and improving tire knowledge for next year.
