The MotoGP rider market hinges on the current unhappiness of the ex-world champions of Honda and Yamaha, for whom the Monday test at Misano will be a crucial moment of truth before they decide whether ওto stay or 𒐪go.

Marquez and Quartararo are contracted to their current teams for next year but, despite lingering rumours that they could seek an exit, the high🅘-flying Aprilia are nonplussed.

Technical director 🐻Romano Albesiano told : “The bike is m🌊ature and the team is, too. It’s not in our plans in the short-term.

“We have four riders who are fantastic, we have im♑proved togeth﷽er with Aleix.

“He has improved in maturity and working with the team. This gives you the idea of how much a rider cꦐan evolve.

“For example, if I apply this e👍volution to Maverick, who is already at a very high level, and maybe he improves on some aspects like his consiste💖ncy, we’re talking about a rider with crazy potential.

“I’m speaking as a friend and a fan - for as long as Aleix w♒ants to continue and go stro🍨ng, like this, there is a bike for him at Aprilia.

🌼“The same for Maverick. I expect a lot from him, more than we’ve seen up to n🐎ow, which is already a lot.

“He can make another step up.”

Aprilia also boast a pair of satellite rider🐼s in their RNF squad who they expect to extract even more potential from.

“Miguel Olive🥂ira is a wonderful rider,” Albesiano said. “I🌳 don’t know where he would be without the bad luck he has had up to today.

“As sꦏoon as there’s a🐬 chance, he is ahead. Then he has an intelligence, an approach which is wonderful.

“I also love Raul Fernandez because he has enormous talent and just needs support, calm, a company that believes🌸 in him. We are that compaꩵny.

“We will give him plenty of time 🎃to grow and show his worth which we believe iꦯs very high.

“Then if Marquez is free or Quartararo is fr🍬ee, I w🌱ouldn’t say we particularly need them.”
