168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aleix Espargaro has backed 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin to win the MotoGP championship - but admits 𒉰his fear for next season.
Pramac’s Martin has a 24-point lead over🅘 champion Pecco Bagnaia heading into this weekend’s finale in Ba🦋rcelona.
But in 2025, while Bagnaia will retain the best machinery in the sport, Martin will swap Ducati forꦰ🎀 Aprilia.
“It gives me enormous pleasure,” his friend, Espargaro, told about bein♛g replaced in the Aprilia garage by Martin.
“It also scares me because it won't be easy afte♊r so long in Ducati, with🌸 a winning bike, to arrive at Aprilia with a totally different concept.
“It won't be easy, but he's my best friend and leaving my bike with him i⛦s a dream."
MotoG🎃P veteran Espargaro will retire after this weekend’s race, which has been rearranged for home tur✱f in Barcelona from flood-hit Valencia.
His Aprilia could be adorned with #1 next season if Martin wins the championship this weekꦜend.
Espargaro is adamant that his friend, w෴ho fell short on the final day of 2023, w🦄ill win his first title.
“Jorge wins,” he declared.
“He has a good advantage,꧋ he has shown that he is fast even in the la𝕴st races.
“The difference between Pecco and Jorge compared to the other ♊riders is impressive, it remind✱s me of the legendary duels of past eras.
“They both deserve this title."
Martin is aiming to prove that Ducati's decision to overl🔯ook him for the 2025 factory ride, in favour of Marquez, was flawed by winning the title this weekend.
He immediately signed a deal to go to Apri🐻lia when Ducati finalised𒐪 their decision to pick Marquez.
Martin has been overlooked for the factory Duca👍ti three times.
