Their modularity recalls the pitch of the vine rows that previously occupied the project site. This articulation of the space into parallel strips is also clearly legible in the facades, through the difference in height concerning the central distribution route.

The concrete partitions, oriented east-west, alternate with large windows, which multiply the views of the garden and welcome natural light, modulating it according to the needs of the interior spaces. The overhang of the roof and the external curtains protect against direct light on the southern front.

The Spaniard will boast the Championship winning number as he looks to defend his title with the Noale factory
After much speculation, we finally have an answer! Jorge Martin will use the #1 plates for the 2025 campaign. The reigning World Champion revealed his decision at Aprilia Racing’s 2025 Team Presentation, with the move also meaning that an Aprilia bike will have the #1 plate for the very first time in the premier class.
“I didn't have any doubts about putting the #1, because I've been fighting for this all of my life. Achieving the World Championship in MotoGP and being able to put this number on the Aprilia is super nice. Hopefully, we can have much more motivation with this number. I feel great with it and, hopefully, we can bring it to the top” said Martin during the Noale factory's Team Presentation in Milan.
‘The Martinator’ joins an elite group of riders to have donned the #1 plate, continuing a revived tradition in MotoGP™. His predecessor, Francesco Bagnaia, became the first rider in over a decade to wear the #1 after clinching the 2022 Championship. Bagnaia went on to make history by successfully defending the title in 2023, becoming the first MotoGP™ rider to retain the #1 since Mick Doohan accomplished the feat during his dominant 500cc era, winning five consecutive titles from 1994 to 1998.

Defending the #1 plate is a rare achievement
with only a select few riders managing to do so
Wayne Rainey joined Doohan on this exclusive list
claiming three straight titles from 1990 to 1992
and Nicky Hayden all donned the #1 after Championship-winning campaigns but fell short of retaining their crowns
he’s not only brought the #1 plate to the Noale factory but also set his sights on delivering their first-ever MotoGP™ World Championship
with the Bologna bullets’ factory line up of Pecco Bagnaia and Marc Marquez more than a formidable challenge aboard the GP25
while he will also have to contend with the likes of rising star Pedro Acosta on the latest spec KTM

One of the main concerns in preparing for the 2025 MotoGP season was making the best decision in terms of the engine – as for manufacturers without concessions
Ducati decided to stick with last year’s engine version
discarding the 2025 version that didn’t provide all the guarantees – feeling that the braking performance was not as effective
there were no major doubts about the new engine
– The guys in Noale made an wonderful job with the engine
The 2025 engine is good in all the aspects overall
This is something that was quite clear early
a former MotoGP rider between 2014 and 2018
recently shared his critical view on the current environment in the premier category paddock

The answer will be revealed on Thursday, January 16th, during Aprilia Racing’s Team Presentation, streamed live and free on motogp.com at 12:00 (UTC +1)
Will Martin make history again by adorning the #1 plate
Stay tuned to find out as Jorge Martin begins his next chapter with Aprilia Racing
Next thing, our neighbors from Noale gave the teeniest of hints of a Tuareg 660 in its EICMA 2019 booth
rider joy and anticipation was simply unconfined
Aprilia seemingly had a sizeable middleweight gap in its range—and at last
the pieces it chose to fill that gap seemed to be slotting perfectly into place
Since that time, of course, there’s been that connecting rod issue with the RS 660 and Tuono 660
the company isn’t simply replacing the faulty part and calling it a day
it’s also doing the right thing and replacing entire affected engines under a worldwide recall
It’s the kind of behavior you want to see from an OEM with machines you love
While the company hasn’t made any official announcements just yet
Aprilia Product Marketing Manager Cristian Barelli recently spoke to Motociclismo about Aprilia’s current and near-future plans
He had quite a few interesting things to say
so you may want to take the time to read the full interview
Aprilia has no plans to make Euro 5-compliant versions of either the Shiver or the Dorsoduro
is simple: The company is heavily focused on the new 660 platform right now
it’s extremely compact—which lends itself neatly to many different packaging options going forward
Motociclismo directly asked if Aprilia is reconsidering a new
modern update of the well-loved Pegaso dual-sport
Barelli didn’t say it would happen for sure
but he did say that it’s currently under consideration

comprised of Aleix Espargaró and Scott Redding
is looking good and ready for the season’s start in Qatar at the Losail International Circuit
Aprilia’s proudly all-Italian challenge in the MotoGP™ World Championship is ready to go in 2018
The work done by the Noale Racing Department during the 2017 season came together to show consistent growth of the RS-GP project which
once again characterised by the Italian livery designed by Aldo Drudi
has been revamped and advanced in every area for the 2018 season
The final part of the season was a turning point for Aprilia
The sixth place earned by Aleix Espargaró at Aragón with a gap of less than six seconds behind the winner
followed immediately by excellent performance in Japan (fourth in qualifying) and Australia (best time at the end of the first day of practice) highlighted clear progress
then halted by the unfortunate injury Espargaró suffered as he was battling in the lead group during the Phillip Island GP
Aprilia is keen to pick up from there with a bike that maintains the same construction philosophy as its forerunner
And Espargaro is now joined in the team by Scott Redding
who will race alongside the Spaniard in the premier class
“Last year we rode some very good races and only a few mistakes compromised our final position in the standings,” says Espargaro
The team has worked well and the new RS-GP is growing in the right direction
but I am certain that we will be close to the top
I prepared well for this new season and I believe in the direction we are going.”
is still adapting – but also confident ahead of lights out
“This is my first year as a factory rider and I must say that I have had very positive sensations so far
Having a team behind me that supports me and works with me to improve the bike gives me great motivation
We have managed to improve consistently with every outing
also experimenting with some solutions that were a gamble
It is difficult for me to make predictions right now
I am still adapting to the RS-GP and at the same time we have undertaken development of the 2018 model
so I am confident as we approach the first race.”
Aprilia Racing Manager Romano Albesiano is also optimistic – and details some of the changes going into the season: “The 2018 RS-GP is an in-depth optimisation and evolution of the concepts we had on the track last year
The new project’s first positive step was the popularity with the riders during the winter tests
They both noticed straight away how much the bike has grown
This reaction is never a given when you introduce such significant changes
but it makes us optimistic for this new MotoGP season
I expect this to be an extremely demanding season
The level has been raised even farther in terms of both the bikes and the riders on the grid
we have all our papers in order to be contenders.”
Aprilia Racing Team Gresini manager Fausto Gresini adds his thoughts ahead of the year – citing Espargaro’s experience in his second year with the team
and Redding’s impressive work so far
“This will be an important season for us,” affirms Gresini
will be able to take advantage of the experience he gained last season
where he learned to work with a new team and a new bike
He adapted quickly and allowed us to bring home some important results
further motivating the team thanks to his grit
We have already had the chance to sample his professional attitude and his technical prowess in the tests where he advanced development of the 2018 RS-GP impeccably.”

One of the most anticipated motorcycles for the 2019 EICMA show
we have been waiting for the 2020 Aprilia RS 660 to set the middleweight twins category on its head
Try this on for size: 100hp from the 660cc parallel-twin engine
Even with the fuzzy math the comes from dry to wet weight conversions
it is clear that the Aprilia RS 660 is going to lead its class on power-to-weight ratios
But the Italian aren’t stopping there with their twin-cylinder assault
The 2020 Aprilia RS 660 also comes with the brand’s robust APRC electronics suite
the highlight of the motorcycle is the 660cc parallel-twin engine
Basically the front cylinder bank off the RSV4 superbike
the Aprilia RS 660 shares a lot of DNA with that class-leading track monster when it comes to engine architecture and philosophy
The basic shape of the Aprilia RS 660 hasn’t changed too much from the concept version
though some of the lines have been refined.
The double fairing design has been used to mimic what is going on aerodynamically with the Aprilia RSV4 superbike
the extra fairing does provide downforce that is aimed at providing stability at high-speeds
The fairing design is also shaped to enhance rider comfort
with the main task being to pull hot air away from the rider
as well as helping to move air around the rider during high speeds
The parallel-twin engine is a fully stressed member of the chassis
which helps keep weight down and improve rigidity
Astute eyes will also notice that the asymmetrical swingarm pivots off the engine casing – again
Suspension is handled by Kayaba forks at the front (we are still waiting to hear what is used for the rear shock)
while the braking system comes all from Brembo
daytime running lights with a cornering function
the RS 660 also comes in a classic purple and red livery
to compliment the standard black on black on black
The big question that remains on the Aprilia RS 660 though is pricing
as it is easy to pack a motorcycle with features and big horsepower numbers
but the middleweight twins category can only accommodate so high of a price
we expect to see the Aprilia RS 660 in the USA sometime in the summer of next year

thinks that Marc Márquez will receive offers from the factory Ducati Lenovo Team
Vergani says that Rivola will try everything to get a contract with eight-time MotoGP world champion Marc Márquez
because if he did he would have stayed with Honda and accepted the 20 million
Marc just wants a state-of-the-art bike that allows him to win
I would also keep him at Gresini with all the factory treatment
He added about the possibility of Aprilia Racing approaching the Spaniard: ‘Rivola will make sure he takes him to Aprilia
I think they’ll make an attempt to take him
considering that the RS-GP is a very competitive bike and the only bike that has won this year outside of Ducati
Viñales is a very good rider and is achieving important results
If Rivola were to pull off the Marquez coup
it would be something really extraordinary for Aprilia
which would put Noale in contention for the title

The Italian will ride alongside Martin in the factory Aprilia Racing team in 2025 and beyond
Ahead of the Motul TT Assen, Aprilia Racing have confirmed that Marco Bezzecchi (Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team) has signed a multi-year deal to race alongside Jorge Martin (Prima Pramac Racing) in the factory RS-GP squad from next season.
Bezzecchi will become the first Italian to race for the Noale factory full-time since 2020, when now test rider, Lorenzo Savadori, lined up alongside Aleix Espargaro for the final three rounds of the year.
Since arriving in the premier class in 2022, Bezzecchi has claimed nine podiums and three wins on a Sunday, while the 25-year-old also collected an impressive P3 Championship finish in just his second season in 2023. In 2025, the #72 and Martin will complete an exciting, all-new pairing in Aprilia’s factory team.

Our pitlane reporter Simon Crafar reveals his thoughts about the Noale factory’s notable pre-season performance
Everyone in the pitlane that I spoke to about Aprilia, including opposition team members, admitted to being impressed with what the Noale factory have achieved over winter. This is not only because they turned up in Qatar with a comprehensively revamped machine, but because it worked. Aleix was fast every session every day – at least until his fall.
I’m really excited for them. Could this be the machine that gets Aprilia some results to be proud of? I'd be better placed to answer that if Aleix had not fallen and cancelled his last race simulation, but the run I saw him do a day earlier was still impressive. From all we now know, Aleix has both the speed and the race pace to be in the large group that I think will be vying for the podium.
I'd understand if Aleix felt quite alone at Aprilia at times, compared to riders at manufacturers who have two, three or even four star riders to gather data and direction from, which can't be easy. That doesn't change the fact that Aleix and Aprilia need to turn all this good, hard work into a solid result on Sunday. Something to build on the following races. If they don't achieve the results they are capable of it feel like déjà vu for us fans.
The pressure is on, because the 2021 RS-GP is the most competitive MotoGP™ Aprilia I've ever seen.
Two new riders. Fresh colours. And the #1 breaks cover as Martin aims to defend his crown…
Aprilia Racing begin a new era in 2025. Reigning Champion Jorge Martin arrives, joined by a fast teammate who is equally new to the Noale factory: Marco Bezzecchi. The new line-up presented their fresh-look RS-GP in Milan on Wednesday, with a few tweaks to their already iconic livery. And we got the answer to that long-awaited question: yes, Martin will run the #1 plate.
Test rider Lorenzo Savadori will also remain on board as part of the Noale project, and the Trackhouse MotoGP™ Team plays an important role with Raul Fernandez and rookie Ai Ogura – fundamental to the continued development of the bike and more than simply an Independent Team on the same machinery. With Martin, Bezzecchi, Fernandez and Ogura, four 2025 spec RS-GPs will be fielded in MotoGP from the very first race.
Jorge Martin: "I'm very happy about this new challenge: winning with Aprilia. My goals are very clear, now we have to focus on being the best version of ourselves, both Aprilia and me. I'm in the right place to do great things, it will be an exciting challenge, we all have a lot of determination. I really feel the warmth of the team and I think this could be a perfect place for me. We are all very excited to start this new season.”
Marco Bezzecchi: "I'm happy to have joined this team, the whole of Aprilia. It will be fantastic and I'm really happy to represent such an important brand. It's a great source of pride for me, both as a person and as a rider, to be part of an official team. I can't wait to get on the track, to work and to give it a bit of gas to try to achieve good results. There's a lot of desire on everyone's part, and it's something I really appreciate. I'm very excited, see you in Sepang for testing!”
The Spaniard recorded his best result with the Noale factory in Misano with a P8 finish, just a tenth behind Aleix Espargaro
2021 has been a trying time for Maverick Viñales, but the Aprilia Gresini rider is looking towards the future with excitement after a positive and confidence-boosting result at the Emilia Romagna GP. His well publicised and acrimonious split from Yamaha has made it a turbulent season for the Spaniard, but he is keen to ensure his latest venture will make for a smoother ride.

the number 12 recorded his best finish to date on the RS-GP
making up 11 places during the race to take the chequered flag eighth
this is a multiple premier class race winner after all
but it is a sign of the progress being made by Viñales and Aprilia just four Grand Prix into their fledgling relationship
"I'm happy because before the race we made a substantial change to the bike’s balance
but our goal is to try to get to know this bike better and better
I had a good pace from the first laps and the only thing that kept me from battling for an even better result was the fact that I had to make up positions from behind.”
and perhaps it is a sign of things to come in the future once he can find the one lap pace needed to secure a better position on the grid
Coming in just over a tenth off his battle-hardened teammate Aleix Espargaro
who has already shown the capabilities of the revamped RS-GP with a podium in Silverstone
things are definitely looking up for the Noale factory
Having seen Espargaro make himself a regular top eight finisher
the hope for Aprilia is that Viñales can bring them to the next level
though he himself isn’t ready to skip any stages of the learning process in exchange for instant success
"I'm very confident after what we have shown on Sunday
the rider-team-bike package is coming together and that is fundamental.”
Exciting times certainly lie ahead for Aprilia
where they will be targeting further podium joy in the near future
