It's not quite the start of the season yet, but Jorge Martin says that the drivers are starting to raise the level of their training, in preparation for the next season. The Pramac rider, a satellite team of a Ducati factory which believes a lot in this young Spaniard, already winner of a MotoGP Grand Prix, presented the new war paints of his training Panigale V4S, while reminding us what he would like for 2023, after a successful campaign in 2022…
In less than a month, the MotoGP will return to Sepang for the first laps of 2022. The drivers are already preparing for it like Jorge Martin qui a pris la piste le week-end dernier, avec sa nouvelle Panigale V4S. On rappellera qu’il a profité de la trêve hivernale pour faire enlever les plaques et les vis posées après l’accident de Portimão dans sa main et sa cheville. Le week-end dernier, le champion du monde Moto3 2018 a repris sa moto d’entraînement sur le circuit d’Andalousie à Almería. “Une semaine intensive d’entraînement nous attend“, avait annoncé le vainqueur du Spielberg 1 l’an dernier.
Before that, the pilot of Bow Ducati had given a new look to its Panigale V4S called “ my beast », which he presented on his social networks. In addition to the Pramac and Ducati lettering, Martin's personal sponsors Red Bull, Alpinestars and Shark as well as his starting number 89 are well placed. The design, which is kept in blue, white and red, is a concept from BRO Grafic. Martin is happy with a result that he evaluates as a work of art.

Jorge Martin is also a Honda target but not only
George Martin was in good company in Almería, as other MotoGP stars like Alex Rins, Peter Acosta et Albert Arenas have also pitched their tents there in recent days. The rookie of the premier category in 2021 also pointed out some elements that will make you think Ducati en 2023 : “Pramac est l’endroit où il faut être, car en fin de compte, nous avons des motos d’usine, mais j’ai eu des offres de presque toutes les usines. Not with factory equipment, but with factory machines » From this remark, we can remove KTM which he left for Ducati, like Suzuki et Aprilia who do not have satellite teams.
George Martin was therefore contacted by Honda et Yamaha … But he gives a chance to Ducati : " If we have a good pre-season, if I understand the bike a little better, if I can concentrate a little more on my style, then we can fight for the top five. I am realistic, the goal is to be in the official team by 2023 ". The message got through.
