This daily column is made for you, early in the morning, to start the day off right while waiting for more substantial articles. Today, discover the joint training of Jorge Martin, Aleix Espargaro, Fermin Aldeguer and many others.
As the Aragon Grand Prix approaches, camaraderie and the need for physical preparation brought together some of the Spanish riders from the MotoGP and Moto2 paddock for a bike ride that was as friendly as it was intense. Among them: Fermin Aldeguer, Gresini rider and rookie of the 2025 MotoGP season, Aleix Espargaró, a recent MotoGP retiree and member of the HRC Test Team, known for his love of cycling, which he practices at a high level. But also Ivan Ortola et Alonso Lopez, who represent the new Spanish generation in Moto2.
George Martin, the reigning MotoGP world champion, who is making his gradual return to training after a serious chest and wrist injury suffered in Qatar, was also in attendance. Finally, Joan Verdu, a high-level Andorran skier, used to rubbing shoulders with MotoGP riders during their altitude training sessions. This bike ride, organized on the sidelines of the Aragon Grand Prix, saw the latter cover a good hundred kilometers.
