Raul Fernandez has agreed to a two-year contract extension with Trackhouse Racing, Aprilia's satellite team. While his strong late-2025 form and an Australian GP win are seen as justifying the deal, some outlets have raised concerns that his results depend heavily on the bike's performance.
A two-year extension makes sense to me — his late-2025 form and that Australian GP win earned it. Still, the point about never outperforming his machine is one I've noticed too, from what I've seen out there. What happens if Aprilia stumbles next year?

Curious what happens if Aprilia's struggling two years from now.
How big a deal is that Australian GP win exactly?
That weekend he rode flawlessly, so yeah, genuinely huge.
Hearing about the Martin feud, his paddock reputation is a bit of a concern.
Feels like he's valued more for fit than raw skill, no?
A two-year deal based on just a late-season surge feels bold.
The 'depends on the bike' criticism honestly feels on point.
