There are now three wildcards confirmed for the MotoGP Spanish Grand Prix. Lorenzo Savadori will compete in the fourth round of the season with Aprilia, returning to competitive racing for the first time since last year’s Valencia GP.
The Italian participated in five rounds in 2023 – two as a substitute in the satellite team for an injured rider, and three as a wildcard in the factory team of the Noale manufacturer.
In a press release, Savadori said: ‘I can’t wait to get back to racing in MotoGP. It will be an important weekend for me and for Aprilia. I’ll be racing with a laboratory bike. We’ll have several new solutions to test and I’ll have the chance to experiment with some new features for Aleix [Espargaró] and Maverick [Viñales]. I’ll give it my all!’.
After the Spanish GP, there will be a test day in Jerez on the following Monday, making this round ideal for wildcards. It is already known that Dani Pedrosa will be with Red Bull KTM, while Stefan Bradl will compete with Honda.
