Aprilia Racing have confirmed that Jorge Martin’s MotoGP return is all set for Wednesday the 9th of July at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli.

The reigning MotoGP World Champion was back on a motorcycle for the first time since his Qatar GP crash at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya last week, and after that was successful, Martin will now hop back on his Aprilia RS-GP25 thoroughbred ahead of returning to Grand Prix action.

Martin, who suffered a rib contusion on the right thorax with a pneumothorax at Lusail, underwent his latest medical check on the 30th of June and Aprilia confirmed that the healing process was positive, and on that basis, two more weeks were needed for complete healing regarding the rib injuries the #1 suffered. Nine days on from that examination, Martin will be getting to grips with a MotoGP bike again.
