Aprilia prepares the ‘trick’
“It was needed“. The CEO of Aprilia Racing Massimo Rivola emphasized that the entire team of the Noale factory, especially the official one, really needed a weekend like the one just concluded at Silverstone to turn the page after a disappointing end to the first half of the season.

Aprilia after the first races of the season seemed destined to dominate the season, then an incredible series of unfortunate events basically reopened everything. At Silverstone the Venetian factory brought updates, novelties that combined with the home advantage turned the three days in Northamptonshire into a bonanza.
Now on the horizon is the Aragon appointment, one of Marc Marquez’s favorite ‘living rooms’, who emphasized that you can’t just think about exploiting favorable tracks to win the World Championship.
“We know that the next race is Marc Márquez’s territory – said Massimo Rivola – but we will prepare as best as possible to be competitive. It’s a beautiful World Championship with two Italian factories fighting for the final victory with multiple riders and the battle will remain open until the last race. There will be tracks where one bike is superior to the other and others where one or more riders will have something extra compared to the others.”
