Another Jorge Martin fitness blow bodes very badly for his relationship with Aprilia
Aprilia Racing’s Jorge Martin will miss the upcoming pre-season MotoGP test at Sepang due to shoulder injury surgery. The decision was made to ensure his full recovery and peak physical condition for the season opener. Despite his absence, Martin will be present with the team in Malaysia. This news comes as a surprise since Martin did not mention it at the recent team launch. His prolonged absence from testing and recent surgery could strain his relationship with Aprilia. Martin’s spot at the Sepang test will be taken by Aprilia test rider Lorenzo Savadori as he aims to return for the final preseason test before the season opener.
