JUARA.NET – Aprilia CEO, Massimo Rivola, responded to the possibility of Francesco Bagnaia moving to Aprilia.

Francesco Bagnaia was previously Ducati’s mainstay racer.

With the team that is synonymous with the color red, Bagnaia managed to win two world titles.

However, Bagnaia seems to be having a lot of trouble in the 2025 season, he can’t find the right feeling with his motorbike.

Apart from that, Marc Marquez’s extraordinary performance was an external pressure that had an impact on him.

Marquez, who had just arrived in the first team, became the new prima donna by dominating the victory before finally being sidelined due to injury.

In the midst of this situation, various possibilities emerged, including moving to another team.

Recently, there has been the potential for Bagnaia to move to Aprilia, especially rumors about the possibility of Valentino Rossi’s team, VR46, becoming an Aprilia satellite team.
