“I have great affection f𒁏or Espargaro for everything he brought to the team,” Aprilia CEO Massimo Rivola told .
“At Mugello we will make a decision.
“He is super fit꧋ and age is only experience, but if Aleix decides to stop we will go on the market and eva🔜luate the alternatives.
“An Italian name can be interesting, there is no profile🦋 but he will have to be devoted to the cause."
about his deadline to decide: "In these four races, which are super mythical, very important circuits, in Jerez, Le Mans, Mugello and Barcelona.“I am in no hurry and Aprilia, I think Massimo said, that they൲ would be the last to decide.
“So calm down, enjoy these races. They are 🍃some of the most beautiful on 𒆙the calendar.
“The results, in the end, are what give you♕ the strength to decide.”
Aprilia were linked with a move for Fabio Quartararo which did not succeed because he renewed his contract⭕ with Yamaha.

"It's normal, that's good,” he reacted. “We've 🍒done a good job at Aprilia.
“Four years ago, no one wanted my bike, eh?
“I've aꦬlso hinted that maybe it's my last year, but I'm calm.
"If I want to cont⭕in🌜ue at Aprilia, I will continue."
Espargaro admits that, w♌hile he weighs up whether to retire or not, his employers must look at alternative riders.
"I have made it clear be🐼cause the feeling I have is that I am not convinced,🌱” he said.
“I am a person without filters, I could have been silent, but I have said what I think: Iꦡ don't know if I am going💎 to continue.
“It is normal that other riders and Aprilia move.
"They can't wait until Oc꧑tober because it's an official bike, one of the best.
“And if I'm not there, a top rider has to go thereꦆ."
Espargaro exp𝄹lained the reason that he is considering stepping away.
"I haveꦑ the feeling that what I have done🌟 is good,” he said.
“And I have other concerns, the calendar is increasingly complicated, the weekends are increas🦩ingly stre⛦ssful. I am not very clear."
