    I've been injured enough racing to think that. But sometimes it's gonna take some time.

    I'm sure if I met him id think he was an egotistical dick.

    But for now I'm a fan and hope he can get better and show his world champion class and that of the Aprilia which is obviously awesome.
    What's great about some of the riders (and drivers) coming through is how open they are about the difficult times they experience. Some of it is generational, if you know any Gen Z you'll know what I mean. But Lando Norris has been very open along his journey to be F1 world champion, and Marc has been the same about his struggles after breaking his arm.

    Jorge Martin has had a really shit year by any standard, and I really hope he can recover and become world champion again. There is no doubting his talent.

    So the silly season has started early... Could look something like this:

    Marc stays at Ducati, Fabio Quartararo to Honda, Martin to Yamaha and Pedro Acosta to Ducati, with Pecco moving to Yamaha.

    Should all be confirmed, or not, in the next few weeks.

    From what I understand, Fabio is confirmed for 2027
    Marc is confirmed for 2 years but not signed.
    Martin is likely, hard to know about Acosta.

    That's what I saw, the first two are definite but after that not so much.

    Aprillia want to give Martin time, and I expect it will be even more so with Pecco at Ducati.
