Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli will be open to the public, free of charge, on Saturday 7th May for Aprilia All Stars 2022.
The big celebration of Aprilia bikes and champions is set to take place next weekend with Aprilia Racing MotoGP riders Aleix Espargaro, Maverick Viñales and Lorenzo Savadori in attendance.
Gates open from 9:30am as live music, meet and greets and rider Q&A’s entertain from the main stage showcasing Aprilia champions of the past, not least multi-title winner Max Biaggi, alongside the current line-up.
The same champions, past and present, will also take to the track with both the 2022 Aprilia RS-GP MotoGP bike, and the very powerful RSV4, the successor to the bike that dominated in Superbike.
The Misano World Circuit will also stage exhibitions of the legendary Aprilia two-stroke race bikes that dominated in the 125 and 250 world championship classes, marking the thirtieth anniversary of the very first Aprilia world championship title, scored by Alex Gramigni in 1992. The all black RSV 250 with which “corsair” Biaggi ruled the world championship in the 90s, Loris Capirossi's number 65 bike, the 125 with which Rossi won his first title and the 250 that saw Manuel Poggiali crowned world champion will all be on display.
Also set to take to the Italian track are bikes from the Aprilia Sport Production 250 Italian Championship and the exclusive Tuono X, the world's lightest and most powerful production naked, ridden by Espargaro, Viñales and Savadori.
Test rides will be available from early morning until 5:00pm providing the chance to test the Aprilia RS 660, Tuono 660, Tuareg and Tuono V4, free of charge, on the roads around the circuit led by professional riders. But for the die-hard Aprilia enthusiasts, the highlight will come mid-afternoon when one lucky participant, selected from among those who enter the free raffle, will win an Aprilia Tuono 660.
The event concludes with a parade at 5:30pm allowing all riders onto the track, as they invade the circuit aboard their own bikes for the spectacular procession that will round out Aprilia All Stars 2022.
