Aprilia scored its first MotoGP podium lock-out after Jorge Martin led factory team-mate Marco Bezzecchi and Trackhouse rider Ai Ogura at the French Grand Prix on Sunday.
Martin struck a psychological blow by hunting down and passing Bezzecchi, whom he had yet to defeat in a Sunday race this season, cutting the Italian’s championship lead to a single point.
This was Martin’s first win since the 2024 Indonesian Grand Prix, when he was on his way to the world title with Pramac Ducati.
Ogura’s first MotoGP podium was the first for a Japanese rider since 2012.
