Revving Towards Resolution: Dorna Calls for Aprillia-Jorge Martin Harmony for MotoGP 2026 Debut

P1racenews AI

Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of MotoGP promoter Dorna, threatened to not accept a Jorge Martin entry for next year’s championship unless the rider’s dispute with Aprilia is resolved. Martin invoked a results-based clause in his contract with Aprilia, freeing him up for 2026, while Aprilia considers the clause invalid due to missed races by Martin. Ezpeleta emphasized that registration in the world championship won’t be accepted unless both parties reach an agreement or a judge decides on the case. Aprilia’s position remains firm on Martin’s contract despite interest from Honda and their willingness to go to court if necessary. Dorna is set to be acquired by Liberty Media soon, with Ezpeleta retaining a minority shareholder position.
