Jorge Martin explains why he was slowest Aprilia in Australian GP Practice

During Friday practice at the Australian Grand Prix, Jorge Martin ended up as the slowest rider representing Aprilia. The reigning champion struggled because he was carrying his former Ducati corner-entry habits onto the circuit, leading him to brake too late and overwork his front tyres.

Although he missed last year's event at the venue and lacks previous machine-specific data, he adjusted his approach during the afternoon session and felt his overall speed was competitive enough. Meanwhile, championship rival Marc Marquez finished the practice session in third place.
