The posturing surrounding a potential early Aprilia exit for Jorge Martin has all the makings of a massive misstep
The speculation around Jorge Martin potentially leaving Aprilia early in 2025 could be a significant misstep for the reigning MotoGP world champion. The details suggesting Martin and his manager are exploring an exit tied to a performance clause at the French Grand Prix seem to have validity. Given Martin’s lack of race starts and a difficult beginning to the season culminating in a hospital stay in Qatar, the situation is complex. Considering Honda as a possible alternative, the potential clash with Pedro Acosta’s situation could complicate matters. The timing and implications of a potential split between Martin and Aprilia raise questions about the champion’s future in the sport. This scenario adds another layer to an already challenging season for the rider and the team involved.
