With great satisfaction on both sides, this confirms one of the longest current MotoGP associations.<\/p>\n<p>Astride the RS-GP since the 2017 season, Aleix has weathered various phases of the Aprilia MotoGP project, from the great and promising growth in the first season to the difficulties of 2018, all the way to the technical revolution of 2019 which led to the birth of the new 2020 RS-GP<\/p>\n<p>The latest prototype showed significant and promising signs of competitiveness in the winter tests, before the 2020 season was disrupted, so much that they contributed to Aleix\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n<p>Passionate, always committed on the track and a motivator in the garage, this will bring Aleix to his sixth season in a row astride the Italian bike. This is a sign of continuity and trust that comes at this turning point in Aprilia\u2019s technical project.<\/p>\n<p><b>ALEIX ESPARGAR\u00d3<\/b> \u201c<i>I am happy about this confirmation. The human aspect is extremely important for me, and in four seasons, Aprilia has become my second family, so with this contract, which is certainly the most important of my career, they demonstrated that I am at the centre of this project. On a technical level, the growth in recent months convinced me, with the arrival of many reinforcements and the d\u00e9but of the 2020 RS-GP, which did so well in the tests. I feel like we need to finish the job we started over the winter. I can\u2019t wait to get back together with my entire team and race with the new bike, to take this project where it deserves to be.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>MASSIMO RIVOLA &#8211; CEO APRILIA RACING<\/b> \u201c<i>We wanted Aleix\u2019s confirmation by all means and we are very happy that it arrived. At a rather tumultuous time for the rider market, providing continuity for our project with a rider the calibre of Aleix is essential. With him, who we have established as our captain, we have begun an entirely new project, involving new resources and taking a bike that seems to have come out very well onto the track. Now we hope that he will soon take an Aprilia to the top, where it has never been in MotoGP history.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ALEIX ESPARGAR\u00d3: \u201cWE HAVE GROWN A LOT.
