أعلن فريق أبريليا اليوم (الأربعاء) أن المتسابق الإسباني خورخي مارتين، بطل العالم لفئة موتو جي بي في الموسم الماضي، عاد مجددا إلى التدريبات بعد فترة تعافٍ من إصابة تعرّض لها خلال مشاركته في سباق جائزة قطر الكبرى، ضمن الجولة الرابعة من البطولة.
وكان مارتين قد غاب عن الجولات الثلاث الافتتاحية للموسم بسبب تعرضه لحادثين خلال التجارب التحضيرية، ثم عاد للمشاركة في سباق قطر قبل أن يسقط مجددا في اللفة الرابعة عشرة، ما أسفر عن إصابات شديدة شملت 11 كسرا في أضلاعه، وأدى ذلك إلى غيابه عن ست جولات إضافية.
وشهدت فترة غيابه توترا في العلاقة بين مارتين وفريق أبريليا، الذي انضم إليه بعد تتويجه باللقب مع فريق براماك، التابع لدوكاتي، ليصبح أول بطل عالمي من فريق غير مصنّع. ورغم إنجازه اللافت، لم يحصل على فرصة الترقية إلى الفريق الأساسي لدوكاتي، الذي اختار بدلا منه الإسباني مارك ماركيس، بطل العالم السابق، مما دفع مارتين للرحيل.
وأوضح فريق أبريليا في بيان رسمي أن الهدف من جلسة اليوم كان تأهيل مارتين تدريجيا على دراجة موتو جي بي بعد غياب امتد لعدة أشهر، مشيرا إلى أنه أتم 29 لفة صباحا و35 لفة إضافية خلال الفترة المسائية على حلبة ميسانو الإيطالية.
ويُنتظر أن تُقام جائزة ألمانيا الكبرى نهاية هذا الأسبوع، تليها جائزة تشيكيا الكبرى على حلبة برنو، قبل بدء عطلة الصيف الرسمية.
وأكد الفريق أن مارتين سيسافر الأسبوع القادم إلى برنو، حيث سيخضع لفحص طبي رسمي تمهيدا للمشاركة في السباق التشيكي.
وفي تصريحاته، عبّر مارتين عن ارتياحه بالعودة، قائلا: «كانت فترة صعبة للغاية، لكنني سعيد بالجلوس مجددا على دراجة موتو جي بي بعد أكثر من ثلاثة أشهر. شعرت اليوم بشيء من الحيوية والتوازن، والخطة الآن هي العودة الكاملة في برنو».

The Aprilia team announced today (Wednesday) that Spanish rider Jorge Martin, the MotoGP World Champion from last season, has returned to training after a recovery period from an injury sustained during the Qatar Grand Prix, part of the fourth round of the championship.
Martin had missed the first three rounds of the season due to two accidents during the pre-season tests, and then returned to participate in the Qatar race before falling again on the fourteenth lap, resulting in severe injuries that included 11 fractures in his ribs, which led to him missing six additional rounds.
During his absence, there was tension in the relationship between Martin and the Aprilia team, which he joined after winning the title with the Pramac team, a Ducati satellite team, becoming the first world champion from a non-manufacturer team. Despite his remarkable achievement, he did not get the opportunity to be promoted to Ducati's main team, which instead chose Spanish rider Marc Marquez, a former world champion, prompting Martin to leave.
The Aprilia team clarified in an official statement that the goal of today's session was to gradually rehabilitate Martin on the MotoGP bike after an absence of several months, noting that he completed 29 laps in the morning and an additional 35 laps during the afternoon at the Misano circuit in Italy.
The German Grand Prix is expected to take place at the end of this week, followed by the Czech Grand Prix at the Brno circuit, before the official summer break begins.
The team confirmed that Martin will travel next week to Brno, where he will undergo an official medical examination in preparation for participating in the Czech race.
In his statements, Martin expressed his relief at returning, saying: "It has been a very difficult period, but I am happy to be back on the MotoGP bike after more than three months. I felt a sense of vitality and balance today, and the plan now is for a full return in Brno."
