<\/p>\nAprilia has released pictures and video of its 2027 850cc MotoGP prototype, during its track debut at a wet Jerez on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
After bench testing and some Pirelli tyre data with the current 1000cc RS-GP, Aprilia\u2019s future machine completed its first laps with test rider Lorenzo Savadori during the start of a private test at the Spanish Grand Prix venue.<\/p>\n
As well as smaller engines and a change from Michelin to Pirelli tyres, next year\u2019s technical rules place tighter restrictions on aerodynamics, ban ride-height devices and require the use of 100% non-fossil origin fuel.<\/p>\n
The Aprilia appeared to be using 2027-spec aero, including a revised nose profile and protruding front wing. The bike is also without any ‘seat wings’.<\/p>\n
