Speaking with 's After the Flag, Bonora offered a positive update on Martin’s condition, while noting that Aprilia had to stop hi𒊎m from returning to the track after his crash.

“For sure, first of all, we are so happy that Jorge today is fine. He feels comfortable, he slept well this night, and he did𝔉n’t have any kind of particular problem.

“So, we are happy about this becಞause after that kind of crash everybody waꦜs thinking about him.

“So, we are happy. To be honest, the difficult thing yesterday was to keep him calm because he wanted to rejoin the track, he wanted to know how the test is going on, 🍸what we are testing.

“So, it w𓆏asꦇ funny because his recovery was so good. Tomorrow he will have the surgery in Spain.

“Now we are only waiting for the medic❀al examination and the official statement from them.

While missing Martin h🔥as been a set-📖back for Aprilia’s test programme, Bonora says the fact it had a strong shakedown with Lorenzo Savadori has softened the blow.

🌟“In this♊ situation, we were lucky, because we did a very good shakedown with Lorenzo,” he added.

“We tested all the parts that we had in plan.

“So, at the end, we had before the official IRTA (International꧋ Race Teams𝔍’ Association) test already a clear picture of the advantages and disadvantages of the new parts.

“Lorenzo did a very good job. And to be realistic and fully honest, Marco ꦐduring these two days gave us a lot of information - clear information. He was stable in his plan.

“He didn’t look at the times, he wasꦫ fully focused on his plan and he did a very pos👍itive test for us.”
