Reigning champ Martin wants to leave Aprilia before 2026 season
May 29 (Reuters) - Reigning MotoGP champion Jorge Martin announced his intention to leave Aprilia ahead of the 2026 season on Thursday, even as the Italian manufacturer expects the Spaniard to honour the two-year deal he signed when he joined.
"Faced with the situation of having to make a decision on a date that is established by contract, I have decided to exercise my right to release myself for the 2026 season," Martin said in a statement.

Why Achraf Hakimi didn't celebrate scoring the opening goal of the Champions League final
Achraf Hakimi scored the opening goal of the Champions League final to put Paris Saint-Germain in front against Inter Milan - but the right back did not celebrate. Hakimi finished Desire Doue's clever cut-back, scoring into an empty net to round off a lovely move from the French side, to give PSG the lead in Munich. However, Hakimi immediately raised his hands in apology to the Inter supporters who were behind Yann Sommer's goal at the Allianz Arena. The 26-year-old Morocco international played for Inter before joining PSG in 2021. He played one season in Italy, but it was a hugely successful one and Inter won Serie A that year. Hakimi was an integral part of Inter's title under Antonio Conte and scored seven goals from right wing back as he was named in the Serie A team of the year. Hakimi is now widely known as the best right back in the world and his goal against Inter means he has scored in the final, semi-final and quarter-final.
