168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aleix Espargaro was asked if his Aprilia could be inherited by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin, his best friend on the MotoGP grid.

Espargaro announced last weekend, at home at the Catalunya MotꦜoGP, that he will retire at the conclusion of this season.

Attention within the paddock swiftly turned to who might replace Aprilia’s team captain on one of the sport’s most de൲sired bikes.

Pramac’s Martin is an obvious conꦚtender if he misses out, again, on the 2025 factory Ducati.

Martin, Gresini’s Marc Marquez and current factory rider Enea Bastianini are awaiting Ducati’s deci🍷sion over theiꩵr ‘25 rider line-up.

Espargaro was 🦩asked in Barcelona if his bike could be given to his friend Martin next season.

“For sure, it’s a 🧜good team and a good꧅ bike,” he said.

“But it’s not fair. Jorge deserves t꧑he ride of his dreams, which is the factory Ducati.

“If he cannot have it, for me, it would be super unfai🐻r.”

Espargaro said about🍒 his Aprilia acting as a Plan B for Martin: “Yes, this would be a very good option.”

He added: “To see Jorge w♏in aꦑ title or win races with the #41 bike? It’s like if I win. The same feeling.”

Espargaro’s own future is up for debate.

Although he will retire from racing, there is now a chase to secure his valuable service 🦂as a test rider.

“I don’t want to speak ab๊out the future,” he said.

“But I don’t think I will stay in Aprilia.”

Espargaro enjoye💮d a dream weekend in Barcelona after confirming his career i🌺s winding down.

He claimed pole posi✤tion for both races then won🐟 the sprint race on Saturday.

Although Espargaro missed a grand prix pod💙ium due to Marc Marquez’s overtake, he emerged with great 🧸credit.

And notably, Espargaro offered a reminder that the Aprilia he wil⛄l leave behind is a winning bike which could become subject of a tug-of-war.
