Aprilia Racing confirms its status as a global motorsport powerhouse by achieving two prestigious results simultaneously in different parts of the world. These successes further strengthen Aprilia’s position as a standout force in international racing, showcasing the versatility and competitiveness of two of its machines, the Aprilia RS 660 and the RSV4, across different challenges and racing environments.
In the United States, Alessandro Di Mario of Team Robem Engineering successfully defended his MotoAmerica Twins Cup title, claiming his second consecutive championship and securing Aprilia’s third title in this category in the last five years. Di Mario won both races at the Virginia International Raceway, securing the title already in Saturday’s first race and dominating a weekend in which of the 37 riders entered at VIR, 16 competed aboard Aprilia RS 660, a testament to the bike’s continued dominance in the category. After kicking off the 2025 season with three consecutive second-place finishes, Di Mario embarked on an unstoppable winning streak, taking victory in the last seven races, including both races at VIR this weekend.

At the same time, in the legendary Suzuka 8 Hours, the third round of the 2025 FIM EWC Endurance World Championship, the Aprilia RSV4 secured an exceptional third place in the Superstock class. This marks Aprilia’s second podium in three years, and the first ever achieved in Japan by an all-Italian team, with the Revo/M2 Racing Team. The result in this historic race confirms the competitiveness and reliability of the RSV4 1100.
The team made up of Kevin Calia, Simone Saltarelli, and Flavio Ferroni, all making their debut on this track, delivered a flawless race, bringing the Aprilia RSV4 1100 onto the Superstock podium. The Aprilia RSV4 1100 completed all 206 laps without any technical issues, confirming its reliability and competitiveness in one of the most demanding challenges on the global racing calendar. This is the team’s first international podium, achieved in their debut at the prestigious Japanese race, on a circuit never before tackled by either the riders or the team.

Massimo Rivola, CEO Aprilia Racing: “Winning the MotoAmerica Twins Cup title for the second consecutive year confirms Di Mario’s talent and the quality of the RS 660 in this tough and competitive championship. Alessandro and his Team Robem Engineering deserve huge applause for the work they’ve done throughout the season. What the Revo/M2 Racing Team achieved in Japan was equally impressive. An Italian team taking on such a challenging event for the first time, on a circuit like Suzuka, full of traps and home-track specialists, is something we will remember. Kevin, Simone, and Flavio were flawless, as was the Team. The Aprilia RSV4 was impeccable too, and in this World Endurance Championship it can definitely play a leading role in the Superstock class, a category that will only become more important in the future.”
