The MotoGP paddock is preparing for a highly anticipated weekend at the Brno Autodrome, the site of Jorge Martin's return to the track. Absent for nearly four months following his heavy crash at the Qatar Grand Prix, the reigning world champion is finally making his comeback in Aprilia's colors.
After weeks of speculation about a possible termination of contract with his team, Martin arrives République tchèque with renewed motivation. He has already had the opportunity to get back in touch with the track on July 9 during a private test at Misano, but will nevertheless have to submit Thursday to an official medical check-up to get the green light from the championship doctors before getting back on the RS-GP on Friday.
George Martin commented : " I can't wait to get back on the bike. I'm very happy that this moment has finally arrived.With Aprilia we have to work hard because we have great potential. It's time to start building and finish the season on a high note. »
Brno will be the last stage before the MotoGP summer break, a crucial meeting for the Spaniard who wants to relaunch his season.
Marco Bezzecchi, Aprilia's other asset
In the neighboring box, Marco Bezzecchi arrives Czech Republic with a mixture of confidence and a spirit of revenge. The Italian is coming off a contrasting weekend at Sachsenring : superb second place during the Sprint on Saturday, but a painful fall on Sunday while he was fighting for the podium.
Bezzecchi is nevertheless pleased to return to a route where the MotoGP had not raced for several seasons:
Marco Bezzecchi comments: “ I'm very happy to be going to Brno, a beautiful circuit where we haven't raced for a long time. It will be a pleasure to be back. I am happy with how everything is goingWe're making a lot of progress and I'm really looking forward to recovering from my performance on Sunday at the Sachsenring. So I'm very motivated. »
