Pertamina VR46 Racing Team racer, Marco Bezzecchi, was officially announced as an Aprilia factory team racer for the 2025 season. This was conveyed directly via Aprilia's official Instagram account, @aprilia, on Monday June 24,2024. Thus, Bezz will become Jorge Martin's teammate at the manufacturer from Noale, Italy.
Having Bezz to complete their line up next season certainly makes Aprilia feel more optimistic in their mission to win the world title. It should be noted that previously Bezzecchi had expressed his desire to join Aprilia in an interview uploaded by the official MotoGP Instagram account , @ motogp.
" If Aprilia allows it, of course I will review it further because they are a very good team," said Bezz, quoted on Tuesday June 25, 2024. This season, Bezzecchi is experiencing a significant decline in performance, in the 2023 season he appeared as second runner-up by collecting 4 wins in one season.
However, this season he seemed to be experiencing difficulties because he had crashed several times and only collected 1 podium. While Aprilia apparently also has high interest in one of Valentino Rossi's students, after the departure of Maverick Vinales, the team under the auspices of Massimo Rivola is reportedly targeting the Italian racer and Bezzecchi is the name most often mentioned.
The CEO of Aprilia admitted that he was very happy with the line-up of his players for the 2025 season. Together with Bezz and Martin, he hoped that Aprilia would be able to achieve better achievements. " We can't wait to embrace Bezz at Noale (Aprilia headquarters), Italian motorbikes and Italian racers will be very interesting, especially with Jorge Martin as a partner ," said Rivola, quoted from The Race page.
Hearing Rivola's statement, it seems that Aprilia still has full confidence in this racer, even though his performance is experiencing a decline. It's natural because Bezzecchi himself is not a racer with any quality. By joining one of the best factory teams in MotoGP and using a motorbike with the latest specifications, will Bezzecchi be able to make a comeback next season?
