Nicola Bulega has been linked with a future MotoGP move 🌟as a part of his latest Ducati co✃ntract talks.

The 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:World Superbike Championship leader is in negotiations because his current deal with Ducati🔯 expires at the end of this season.

But Aprilia were raised as an alternative destination due to the unc𝓰ertainty in the rider market.

MotoGP champion’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin’s hint that he could quit Aprilia in 2026 potentially leaves an unexpected factory seat vac𝔉aꦰnt.

Amid the debate about who Aprilia could sign instead - if they fail to keep hold of the contracted Martin - Bulega was asked about the free bike.

“They haven’t called me,” Bulega told GPOne during the WorldSBK Most round.

“I am now focusedꦰ on World Superbikes although it is clear that MotoGP is the dream of every rider.

“I don’t hide the fact that I would like it﷽, bu🐠t Aprilia is an official team and therefore must aim to score great results.

“And then I remain of the idea that the right year for me to go to MotoGP would be 2027, and not next year, when everything would the same and I would need at least two years to do the first apprentice꧃ship.”

Nicola Bulega predicts Jorge Martin replacement

In 2027, MotoGP’s official tyre supplier will change to Pirelli, which WorldSBK alre꧙ady uses.

That means that Bulega or Topꦗrak Razgatlioglu, who is also heavi🎃ly linked to a MotoGP switch, could enter with an advantage of how to ride with Pirelli tyres.

Bulega predicted ꩲa fellow Italian would inherit Martin’s seat at Aprilia.

“Who will go to Aprilia? Foღr me, ౠEnea Bastianini,” he claimed.

Bastꦍianini lost his factory Ducati seat this year to Marc Marquez.

He joined Tech3 KTM but has never got to grips with his new bike, unlike tea🌸mmate Maverick Vinales.

The vacancy at Aprilia - Italy’s♒ other major manu༺facturer - might naturally entice Bastianini.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历🎶史:Bastianini is al𝓰so admired by Pramac Yamaha.

However, Aprilia might not need to l🔜ook elsewhere.

De♓spite the suggestions about Martin’s exit, he remains under contract in 2026. There are suggestions he will give Aprilia six races, after his comeback from injury, to prove their worth.

Bule♈ga▨, meanwhile, is left likely to re-sign with Ducati in WorldSBK.

He said before Most: “I want to stay focused on World Superbike because now ♈I’m racing here and our goal is to try to win the championship this year and next year, and then we will see.”

💖Bulega 🎉won Race 2 in the Czech Republic on Sunday after rival Razgatlioglu got the better of him on Saturday.
