JORGE MARTÍN AND MARCO BEZZECCHI ON THE TRACK AT Sachsenring FOR THE FINAL RACE AHEAD OF THE SUMMER BREAK
Sachsenring, 7 July 2026 - Aprilia Racing is back on track for the eleventh round of the season – the last one ahead of the summer break – on the German Sachsenring circuit.
Jorge Martín, fresh from his third-place finish in the Assen long race, is headed to the German GP as the leader in the overall standings with the goal of further consolidating his feeling with the RS-GP26. Marco Bezzecchi, on the other hand, will be arriving at the Sachsenring keen to leave his complicated Assen Sunday – where a bad crash forced him to retire – and he will also be determined to get back to battling for the top positions.
The Sachsenring is known for its tight turn, almost all left-handers, which twist their way along the 3,670 metres of the track, making it one of the slowest circuits on the calendar, raced in anticlockwise direction.

JORGE MARTÍN, #89: “We are tackling this GP in a good moment, plus I really like the Sachsenring. We still have margin for improvement, but I’m convinced that we’ll soon reach 100% thanks to the hard work of Aprilia and the team in the garage. The main objective is to head into the second half of the season with positive sensations and the awareness that we’ve given one hundred percent all the way to the end.”
MARCO BEZZECCHI, #72: “I’m happy and keen to get back in the saddle. I obviously hope to improve a bit more in terms of physical condition over the next few days, but my recovery has been going well so far. I can’t wait to embrace my team again because, after Assen, we need to see one another again and continue looking forward together.”
