Aprilia will be back to full strength with the return of Aleix Espargaro for this weekend's Valencia MotoGP finale, when the team will also run the special (RED) l🃏ivery seen at last year's e🍌vent.

(RED), founded in 2006 by Bono and Bobb🍷y Shriver, has contri🌸buted more than $475 million to the Global Fund in the battle against AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.

Spaniard Espargaro will be back in the saddle of his RS-GP after being fo𓃲rced to miss Sepang due to a hand injury at Phillip Island.

"I can't wait to get back in the saddle. I have missed the RS-GP!" Esparga😼ro said. "I was sorry to miss the Malaysia round d🔯ue to the injury. Unfortunately, ours is a dangerous sport and these things can happen.

"I am confident. My hand is better and despite the fact that there is still some pain, I will give 100%. The entire team and I deserve to finish this season well. We have worked hard and we want to tackle preparation for 2018 wit𒊎h the right confidence."

Rookie team-mate Sam Lowes will be making his final MotoGP appearance for Aprilia before step꧂ping back to Moto2 in 2018.

"I want to do well in Valencia. It is a tꦍrack where we have done various tests, so we will have a good starting setup. After the triple-header I recharged my batteries and I am ready to give it my all for myself and for the team," Lowes sa▨id.

Es🤪pargaro starts the final round holding 14th in the world championship, with Lowes 25th.
