Bezzecchi powers Aprilia to historic MotoGP double at Mugello
Marco Bezzecchi delivers Aprilia’s first-ever MotoGP victory and a historic double win at the Italian Grand Prix in Mugello. The Italian rider crosses the line first in Sunday’s race, securing Aprilia’s maiden triumph in the premier class, while teammate Jorge Martín finishes second to complete a 1-2 for the Noale-based manufacturer, as reported by *La Repubblica* .
Bezzecchi’s victory—his second consecutive win at Mugello—extends his championship lead, with *Público* noting he now strengthens his position at the top of the standings . Defending champion Francesco Bagnaia holds off a late charge from rookie Ai Ogura to claim third, while six-time title winner Marc Márquez finishes seventh, according to *El Mundo* .
The result marks a milestone for Aprilia, which had never before won a MotoGP race since entering the class in 2022. Bezzecchi’s dominance at Mugello—where he also won in 2025—further cements his status as a title contender, with the championship now entering a critical phase ahead of next weekend’s Catalan Grand Prix.
