The MotoGP world is in shock after the unexpected revelation from the Aprilia team: Jorge Martin, one of the favourites for the 2025 world title, has suffered a serious injury following a crash in the Qatar Grand Prix. Until now, his physical condition had been kept under wraps, but now disturbing details have emerged that are changing the face of the championship.

According to internal sources at Aprilia, Martin has reportedly suffered significant injuries to his shoulder and wrist, which could compromise his participation in the next races. “Jorge is battling constant pain. He is a warrior, but his condition is more serious than initially thought,” said a team member on condition of anonymity.

The crash, which occurred during a risky overtaking move in the central phase of the race in Qatar, initially seemed to be without serious consequences. However, the truth has remained hidden until today, perhaps to avoid destabilizing the team’s morale or for reasons related to championship strategy.

Fans were shocked by the news, while debate erupted on social media: is it right to hide such serious injuries for sporting reasons? Many are calling for greater transparency from teams and Dorna.

With the MotoGP calendar becoming increasingly tight, Jorge Martin’s possible absence risks changing the fate of the title. Aprilia will now have to decide whether to field him despite the risks or aim for a conservative strategy.
