Andrea DOVIZIOSO is returning as APRILIA TEST driver

Andrea Dovizioso opted for a one-year break in MotoGP after the end of last season. Aprilia's interest in him was great and it seems that "Dovi" will perform at the tests in Jerez from 12 to 14 April.

"I was pleased with Aprilia's interest and when we talked about doing this test, I gladly accepted the invitation to be able to ride a motorcycle again and stay in shape in MotoGP and give feedback to the engineers," he said Italian.

“It was a pleasure to invite Andrea. The days in Jerez will simply be an opportunity to get to know each other better on the track, ” said the team boss Massimo Rivola. Pri April they hope that the cooperation will continue in the future and they will be able to reach an agreement in the future as well, as they are aware of what a racer like Dovizioso to the team.

Aleix Espargaro shone with Aprilia in past tests in Qatar. With the arrival of Dovizioso, the Italian team would get another strong trump card.

Dovi he turned down an offer last season because he said he wanted to race a motorbike to compete in the title race. The arrival of Dovizioso, however, poses a threat to the current racer Aprilia, Bradley Smith, because if there was an agreement between the team and the Italian, Dovi would most likely take over his position in the team MotoGP.
