Aprilia Racing Dominates Goiânia with Bezzecchi and Martín One-Two
Aprilia Racing achieved a historic one-two finish at the Autódromo Internacional de Goiânia, with Marco Bezzecchi securing his fourth consecutive victory and Jorge Martín taking second. This remarkable performance also saw four Aprilia bikes finish in the top ten, solidifying the team's lead in both the manufacturers' and team championships.
Aprilia Racing delivered an extraordinary performance at the Autódromo Internacional de Goiânia, marking a significant day for the team. Marco Bezzecchi, starting from second on the grid, immediately took the lead and maintained it throughout the race, securing his first win on the Brazilian track.
This victory is Bezzecchi's fourth consecutive win, a career first for the Italian rider, following triumphs in Portimão, Valencia, and Buriram. He now joins an elite group of riders—including Valentino Rossi, Marc Márquez, Jorge Lorenzo, and Pecco Bagnaia—to achieve four consecutive Grand Prix wins in the modern era. Bezzecchi also becomes the first Aprilia Racing rider to claim five top-class victories, including Silverstone 2025.
Completing the one-two for Aprilia Racing was Jorge Martín, who finished second, earning his first podium with the team after a 490-day absence from the rostrum. This marks the second one-two finish for the factory team, and Aprilia Racing's tenth win in the top class overall.
The strong showing extended beyond the factory team, with Trackhouse MotoGP Team riders Ai Ogura finishing fifth and Raúl Fernández securing tenth place. This brought the total number of Aprilia bikes in the top ten to four, highlighting the manufacturer's current dominance. Following these results, Aprilia Racing now leads both the manufacturers' and team championships, with their riders occupying the top two positions in the overall standings for the first time in their history in the FIM Grand Prix World Championship.
