Andrea Dovizioso is back in Jerez with Aprilia on a MotoGP class motorcycle, and after three days of testing, things seem to be moving in the direction of the Italian’s return to the elite class of the motorcycle championship.

Dovizioso, who, according to unofficial information, praised the ride of the Aprilia motorcycle RS-GP21, will most likely undergo another test in Italian soon Mugello, the manufacturer from Noala, however, would probably be happy to be a racer of his caliber, as he has yet to win any of the manufacturers currently competing in MotoGP.

Dovizioso he said to him MotoGP still a mom, so he decided to test with April"MotoGP is still my passion and I would like to race next season, so it was good for me to do this testing, and I'm glad Aprilia made it possible for me," said the former Ducati racer, who started his career with Aprilia in the 125cc class in the 2001 season.

Andrea Dovizioso collected test kilometers with the Aprilia RS-GP21 at the Angel Nieto racetrack in Jerez.

After Aprilia confirmed that Dovizioso would perform the testing, a number of speculations surfaced about wildcard performance options, or even returns among regular racers. "Testing is good for me, whether I'm racing next season or not," said 35-year-old Dovi, who lost some time on the last day of testing due to wind conditions.

about a few rounds, the number and times are not publicly available, he devoted himself chiefly adjusting to the sitting position on a motorcycle and even though he didn’t have enough time to be able to made a comparison with last year’s Ducati, recognized some of the engine's strengths RS-GP21“I’ve seen some good features of the motorcycle, but it’s hard to see clearly how good the package is, as it takes time to feel good on the bike and to be able to ride at the border. I’m talking about the sitting position here, not the engine performance, as the position in MotoGP is even more important because you have to be very precise. This engine also has positive and negative properties, but I had a very good feeling. ”

Andrea Dovizioso adjusted the sitting position on the motorcycle in Jerez. Although there is no talk of a possible return to racing, he confirmed that another test is planned in a month.

Although some sources have predicted that Dovizioso already this weekend at the GP of Portugal replaced Lorenzo Savadoria, for now Aprilia yet has not confirmed plans for a racing performance“We will soon be conducting another test where we will continue to work on the sitting position and some other details that take time. We will probably prepare another test in Mugello in a month or so, and then we will talk further, at least that is the plan, ” issued by Dovizioso.
