Lorenzo Savadori details his goal for the Buriram Test which should benefit Jorge Martin

Gold & Goose

Aprilia's MotoGP Test Rider is aiming to make Jorge Martin's return as easy as possible for the reigning Champion.

After a terrible start to Aprilia's preseason, the bulk of their testing and development has been handed to Lorenzo Savadori.

The Italian is the Aprilia test rider, but he was not supposed to be this busy during preseason. However, when Jorge Martin crashed on the opening day of the Sepang Test and fractured his right hand and left foot Savadori was called up.

Martin is absent from the Buriram Test due to his recent surgery so Savadori has continued his testing duties.

"We are focused on electronic strategy. This is not simple or fast work," Savadori said.

"Sometimes it’s worse, sometimes better, sometimes you need to adjust it. Our goal is for Jorge to return and find the simplest possible bike to immediately go fast.

"We tried to find a different road to our normal setup. The engineer put a new strategy on. I tried it. When I returned, I explained my feelings and checked the data. I work with the engineers to find the correct point.

"It is not a completely new system, we are just making changes. Never is it enough, we need to improve, improve, improve."

Aprilia did have four riders present at the Buriram Test after Raul Fernandez was declared fit for the second MotoGP Test of 2025.
