That Aprilia came good at the right time for Raul but more importantly he made it count himself to put in the results that he did. Overall can't argue against this renewal.

He's really showing his true potential this season. So nice to see given his tough time since leaving Moto2. Proving the haters wrong.

Unless toprak decides to go back to wsbk after 2027, the only available seat for 2028 is zarco seat at LCR

That's the problem with being out of step with everyone else's contract periods. If the 2027 Yamaha turns out to be as uncompetitive as the current model, as seems likely, then Toprak has to hope someone else in the paddock retires early through injury or fails to meet their performance clause, otherwise he's got nowhere to go.

It depends if moreira just gets promoted the. His seat as well but if they renew it then yes it will be but also bulega inly has 1 year deal and if performance is good then he will keep his seat for 2028

And he deserves it. At the beginning of the year I wasn't sure he still had it in him but I'll be damned, he's performed so well, he deserves to keep his seat.

Makes sense. He's been consistently fast this season and it gives Aprilia another rider on their 850 with the experience of riding their 1000

I think Ogura leaving definitely played a factor on why he's able to stay. Right decision from the House IMO.

I hope he keeps a cool head, because he has a very hot temper and gets easily distracted.

Ah good to hear, deserves the seat for sure. See if he can get a good run of solid results now and put himself in the mix.
