MotoGP: Max Biaggi makes fun of the serial of the second pilot at Aprilia

Max Biaggi sets the mood! At Aprilia, we seem to have made a specialty of playing, in MotoGP, in the mountains which always give birth to a mouse. Because the brand is part of the powerful European group Piaggio, we would be entitled to hope for substantial resources for an ambition in the premier category with the RS-GP. However, from the start of the project, until its installation within a private Gresini structure, we have excelled in half-measures. With inevitably disappointing results. A policy which is reflected again in the choice of the second pilot. What makes Max Biaggi laugh...

Max Biaggi rolls Husqvarna in a team marked by his first name in Moto3 and he is an ambassador of the brand Aprilia in MotoGP. The Noale factory waited all season for its second driver to finish with a legal procedure which proved interminable for a disastrous verdict. We will indeed recall thatAndrea Iannone is now suspended for four years.

We must therefore go in search of a new pilot. This while the market is empty of proposals while the project RS GP doesn't get any more attractive than that. So, after names have been released, we risk accommodating the remains with those already present Savadori et Smith... " It's no secret that we made an offer to three young pilots ", said Aprilia race director Massimo Rivola on speedweek. " We had the feeling that our project could be interesting for young pilots. But they don't feel ready to change ».

Max Biaggi recalls that he is also at Aprilia

« And besides, their teams, who signed them for 2021, prefer to keep them. We respect their choice. We prefer to move on with our pilots rather than choose an unsafe solution that we are not convinced about » adds the Italian. “ Lorenzo Savadori has made significant progress in his three races and we know we can count on the professionalism and experience of Bradley Smith. Obviously, Aleix will be our best driver. After winter testing we will decide who will take on the role of second driver and test driver ».

Waiting, Max Biaggi poses his candidacy in an original way in case it is necessary to consider a third option... Which will therefore never be that of Jorge Lorenzo, whose spontaneous candidacy does not even seem to have been taken into consideration.
