Why Trackhouse Racing signed Ai Ogura in MotoGP ✍️🇯🇵

Moto2 star Ai Ogura has been officially confirmed as moving to MotoGP next season with Trackhouse Racing onboard an Aprilia.

While Ogura has often been linked with the Idemitsu-backed LCR Honda of Takaaki Nakagami, he moved into contention for the Aprilia ride during the summer break.

That also meant fighting off competition from the likes of American star and fellow Moto2 race winner Joe Roberts.

Ogura - who has signed an initial two-year deal - will join current Trackhouse rider Raul Fernandez at the American team next year, with Miguel Oliveira expected to move to the new Pramac Yamaha project.

Both Ogura and Fernandez will ride 'current factory specification Trackhouse Aprilia RS-GP bikes' which the team confirmed to Crash.net means '2025 factory bikes'.

But did they make the right decision? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
