Marquez to Aprilia 2027: Championship Prediction?

News Summary:

TRIBUNNEWS.COM – The undeniable growth shown by Aprilia this year has made many people dare to claim that the dominance shown by Ducati recently is threatened by the strength of the Noale manufacturer.

It was Aprilia who found the pillar that Jorge Martin, who became a martyr due to injury, could not offer. Fortunately, the presence of Marco Bezzecchi can be a “sharpening” spearhead to challenge Marc Marquez’s dominance.

It cannot be denied that Ducati has real dominance this season, which must be admitted, the majority of which is thanks to the existence of the 2025 MotoGP world champion, Marc Marquez, without meaning to minimize the meaning of Francesco ‘Pecco’ Bagnaia.

That the absolute figures for the Borgo Panigale brand so far this year are worse than in previous years is a fact.

Among other things, because it was a record season for the red bike, which collected 19 wins out of a possible 20, as well as 53 podiums out of a total of 60, and monopolized three podiums in 14 Grand Prix.

Overall, Ducati scored 722 points out of 740 points wagered, for a success rate of 98 percent.

This time his record didn’t reach that level, but it wasn’t that far off either, including 17 wins from 22 races, with four different drivers. Plus 44 podiums from 66 and seven Grand Prix with three Ducati riders on the podium

Of all these factors, there are two that play an important role.

Ducati has gone from competing with eight bikes to six bikes, and Marc Marquez, the spearhead, suffered a serious injury at the start of the Indonesian Grand Prix, and as a result an injury to his right arm, which has brought a lot of stress. He missed the last four games on the calendar.

Coincidentally or not, three wins (Australia, Portugal and Valencia) of Aprilia’s four wins this season were achieved when Marquez was not on the track.

These data and facts then triggered a reaction from three-time MotoGP world champion, Jorge Lorenzo, to again “fan” the 2027 MotoGP racer transfer market.

Silly season or the 2027 MotoGP racer transfer issue, is always ‘hot’ to discuss, considering that 90 percent of premier class riders have contracts until 2026. This means that the possibility of a transfer saga and racer transfer polt twist is very large.

Jorge Lorenzo, with his outspoken character, led to the issue of Marc Marquez’s transfer to Aprilia. The basis lies in the development of the Noale factory motorbike, the RS-GP, which, although not dominant, is able to compete closely against the Desmosedici Ducati which is considered the best iron horse in MotoGP at the moment.

“I think Aprilia is on par with Ducati. In some circuits it is even superior. Marc Marquez with Aprilia will definitely be very fast and can win (MotoGP-red),” stressed the man nicknamed Por Fuera, quoted from the page Motosan.

This statement has again heated up speculation about Marquez’s potential suitability for the character of the Aprilia motorbike.
