"Compared to my ART bikes this is a major step forward both in terms of engine and chassis. I want t🅠o thank Aprilia Racing the Team Iodaracing e-motion for the opportunity they given to me."

de Angelis woul꧃d clearly like to use the bike during the remaining MotoGP rounds, although it is not yet clear if t🔥hat will be possible. Ioda is also yet to confirm its 2016 plans.
