JAKARTA - The riddle about the future of Aleix Espargaro and Maverick Vinales with Aprilia Racing has been answered. Both drivers are confirmed to extend the contract.

Aprilia Racing officially maintains the duo Aleix Espargaro and Maverick Vinales until MotoGP 2024. This news was officially announced ahead of the Italian MotoGP race at the Mugello Circuit.

"I am very pleased to announce that Aleix Espargaro and Maverick Vinales will continue to be with Aprilia for the next two years," said Aprilia CEO Massimo Rivola, as quoted by Crash.

Aleix Espargaro's contract extension is actually not that surprising. The reason is, the Spaniard managed to make history for Aprilia by winning his first MotoGP victory.

This achievement he achieved during the MotoGP race in Argentina, some time ago. Even now, the former Suzuki rider is in second place in the drivers' standings with 98 points, only four points behind Fabio Quartararo.

"The 'Captain' (Aleix) was part of our history for a long time and I have no doubts about what he brought to get us to where we are today and he will continue to fight, even more, with the enthusiasm he brings to the team. ' said Rivola.

Meanwhile, Rivola also said he was happy to be able to continue working with Vinales. He fully believes in the talent of the former Suzuki and Yamaha rider.

"I'm sure he will show everyone, not just us, his true potential," said Rivola.
