Aprilia Racing boss Massimo Rivola has confirmed he won't impose team orders on satellite squad Trackhouse, with four competitive RS-GPs on track under Jorge Martin, Marco Bezzecchi, Ai Ogura, and Raul Fernandez. 'Aprilia becoming champion matters more than who wins,' he said.
Having watched this from the paddock, this takes real nerve. With all four genuinely able to win, refusing to hand down team orders is something any rider who still remembers the throttle in their fingertips would welcome. Martin, Bezzecchi, Ogura, Fernandez - I want to watch them go at each other for real.

Back in the day, favoring one rider under the guise of "brand first" was normal — now the opposite gets praised.
Just hearing all four bikes get to race flat out makes the rest of the season more fun to watch.
What's actually different about a satellite team versus the factory team? Does it mean worse support?
Four competitive bikes with no team orders — if they take each other out, the whole strategy backfires.
With four riders this close, imposing orders now would actually be the riskier call — this seems reasonable.
What's the actual difference between a satellite and a factory team?
Same bike and engine supplier, but the contracts and development say differ.
They can say fair now, but it'll probably shift when it counts.
Having Ogura in that mix is exciting, rooting for him.
In the end this just favors the factory team, doesn't it.
With all four this close right now, the numbers say it's still fair.
