The retirement of Aleix Espargaro guarantees that a particularly coveted bike will become free for the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2025 MotoGP rider line-up.

His best friend inside the paddock, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin, is hoping tജo upgraꦜde from Pramac to factory Ducati.

But Marc Marq♒uez and Enea Bastianini are also in the hunt meaning two excellent riders will be disappointeജd.

The option of Aprilia - who 🦂could offer factory status and the second-best bike in MotoGP today - might then become attractive to whoever misses out.

“Now, there is no sense to start thinking about what can b𒁏e a good option or not,” Martin sa📖id when asked about replacing Espargaro at Aprilia.

“Now we have to wait until that moment.

“The European brands are in good shape, KTM and Aprilia. Honda and Yamaha ꦫwill arrive.

“There are really competitive options.”

Martin doubled-down on his claim that results during 🌼May will not determine who gets the ‘25 ඣDucati seat.

He delivered his factory a remi𝓰nder that their rivals have been e♕nquiring about his availability.

“I think Jerez, Le Mans or whatever happens here will not change it,” Martin said ahead of this weekend’s Catalunya MotoGP.

“I understand Ducat🃏i’s timing, they have to put it all together.

“In the next two weeks I will decide my futur🍃e. Because I will know Ducati♑’s choice.

“I am happy that other factories have knocked on m🥂y door⭕.

“I cannot control what happens in the next weeks. I will do ♑my best in Montelo, and we’ll see what🧔 the future brings us.”

Martin leads the MotoGP championship after five rounds, a🐭fter winning the sprint and the grand prix at Le Mans.

He is 38 points ahead of Francesco Bagnaia, and 40 cle🌊ar of Enea ﷺBastianini and Marquez.

“It will be a challenging weekend,” 🌠he said about Barcelona.

“I am happy 🎶with the last result but we must f𝕴ocus on this track.

“I remember in the last two seasons♑ that we struggled with🦋 the grip. Let’s see how the new bike performs. I think it can be better than last season.

“Last season,𒁏 Aprilia was♚ on another level. The target is to close that gap.

“I am confident tha꧙t I am in a great moment with my bike.”
