Aprilia: 'The new aerodynamics change the riding style'
Will Aprilia’s aero push pay off in MotoGP 2024?

Aprilia hasඣ bet heavily on aerodynamics for the 2024 RS-GP, but the large range of new aero parts has also chang💟ed the balance and riding style needed for the bike.
While168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Aleix Espargaro was quick to master the extra downforce and resulting weight, team-mate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Maverick Vinales and Trackhouse’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Miguel Oliveira took longer to adapt.
But by the end of the Qatar MotoGP test, Vinales had joined Espargaro in the top six, while Oliveira delivered hisꦦ best day of the pre-season in twelfth (+0.884s). Both seemed more comfortable on the standard rear aero, rather than the new diffuser style design.
“We tested many, many things in all the areas, but in particular in the aerodynamic side we tested a lot,” A✃prilia team 𒁏manager Paolo Bonora told MotoGP.com
“And we worked on♐ the chassis and electronic side to adjust the package for the new aerodynamics.
“At the end of 💫this test we fixed a few que🦋stion marks that we had after the Sepang test.
“We defined the first set-up for Aleix and Maverick and we defined in a be𓆉tter way how to use the new bike.
“Because the new aerodynamics change the riding s🥀tyle and it’s necessary to adapt to the new set-up.”
Engine development ap๊pears to have been m🌳inimised by Aprilia for 2024.
That is good news at least for Oliveira’s team-mate Raul Fernandez, on the 2023 spec bike, who♏ is set to be upgraded to the 2024 parts during the year.
Aprilia, Ducati and KTM riders are unable to change engine design during t🌟he season.
