Davide Brivio is leaving the Trackhouse Aprilia MotoGP team at the end of the 2026 season to reportedly join Honda.
His exit, which has been widely speculated in the MotoGP paddock for the past week, has now been officially confirmed by the satellite Aprilia team in consultation with Trackhouse.
The team is currently working on a new leadership structure as part of their succession plan following Brivio’s departure.
Brivio initially joined Trackhouse in 2024 after his time with the Alpine F1 team and notably led the team to their first win in Phillip Island in 2025.
His departure came as a surprise to rider Raul Fernandez, who expressed gratitude for Brivio’s support during difficult moments in his career and acknowledged the uncertainty but expressed confidence in the team’s future.
