The 2027 MotoGP rider puzzle is getting a little clearer. Yesterday Ducati announced it and Pecco Bagnaia are parting ways at the end of 2026. Today, Aprilia announce Bagnaia will be joining the Noale-based team starting next year. What's interesting is the fact this is a four-year deal, where most rider contracts are for one or two years.
