The Latest Breaking News from Jorge Martin

Martin’s 100% podium finish record in 2024 came to an end last Sunday at the Americas Grand Prix when he was overtaken for third by Ducati’s Enea Bastianini on the penultimate lap.

After battling with Marc Marquez, Pedro Acosta and Jorge Martin early on for the race lead, factory Ducati rider Bagnaia slipped to fifth place at the chequered flag, finishing over seven seconds behind race winner Maverick Vinales.

Having gone without a victory for three years before his triumph in the Portuguese GP sprint, Vinales made it back-to-back wins in the half-distance races as he streaked away from the field.

In a dramatic Q2 session, Vinales dominated on his factory Aprilia with the first ever sub-2m01s lap of the Circuit of the Americas to score his first pole since Valencia last year with a 2m00.864s.

The 26-year-old made his MotoGP debut with Pramac in 2021 and has been a part of its roster ever since aboard factory machinery.

Coming into the 2024 MotoGP season, three riders stood on the edge of making history: Vinales was one with Aprilia, Alex Rins with Yamaha and Jack Miller with KTM are the others.

Francesco Bagnaia became a two-time MotoGP champion after sealing the 2023 title in the Valencia season finale last year. He edged out title rival Jorge Martin to clinch back-to-back championships in impressive fashion, as Bagnaia finished the year with a podium in each of the final seven races. Now it…

The Spaniard holds a lead in the championship after the opening two rounds of the season of 18 points, marking the first time ever he has headed the standings for more than 24 hours.

While seven races are still to run this year, the grid for the 2025 MotoGP season is already complete.
