Aprilia has bet heavily on aerodynamics for the 2024 RS-GP, but the large range of new aero parts has also changed the balance and riding style n♈eeded fo⭕r the bike.

While168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Aleix Espargaro was quick to master the extra downforce and resulting weight, team-mate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Maverick Vinales and Trackhouse’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Miguel Oliveira took longer to adapt.

But by the end of the Qatar MotoGP test, Vin🦹ales had joined Espargaro in the top six, while Oliveira delivered his b🎶est 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,” Aprilia team manager Paolo Bonora told MotoGP.com

“And we worked on the chassis and electronic si🌳de to adjust the package for the new aerodynamics.

“At the end of this test we fixed a few question marks that we had a﷽fter the Sepang test.

“We defined the ꦕfirst set-up for Aleix and Maverick and we defined in a better way how to use the new bike.

“Because the new aerodynamics change the r💝iding style and it’s necessary to adapt to🦂 the new set-up.”

Engine development appears to have been minimise൲d by Aprilia for 2024. 

That is good news at least for Oliveira’s team-mate Raul Fernand♓ez, on the 2023 spec bike, who is set to be upgraded to the 2024 parts during the year.

Aprilia, Ducati an🤪d KTM riders are unable to change engine design during tꦯhe season.
