There are seasons where the general standings do not tell the complete story of the campaign, and this year is a prime example. If one looks strictly at the very top of the championship, Marc Marquez holds a commanding lead. However, when breaking down the grid by manufacturer statistics, the narrative shifts dramatically: Aprilia has proven to be the superior motorcycle package overall.
According to reports from Motosan.es, the defining metric is the average points scored per rider by each manufacturer. Aprilia, fielding just four machines across the factory and Trackhouse squads, averages an impressive 320 points per rider. Meanwhile, Ducati, utilizing six bikes distributed among multiple teams, lags behind at 213.7 points, highlighting a massive efficiency gap between the two Italian factories.
The strength of the Noale manufacturer lies not just in its individual stars, but in remarkable depth and sheer consistency. All four of their riders sit comfortably inside the top seven of the world championship standings. Jorge Martin anchors the title charge in second, closely supported by Marco Bezzecchi, alongside stellar campaigns from Ai Ogura and Raul Fernandez.
Conversely, the Borgo Panigale powerhouse relies heavily on its talisman in the factory garage. Without Marquez's colossal points haul, the team's average plummets significantly. Compounded by injuries and a difficult run of form for Francesco Bagnaia, Ducati has struggled to match the collective firepower demonstrated by their primary rivals.
Even though both factories share a comparable number of Grand Prix victories after nineteen rounds, Aprilia's wins have been distributed among multiple riders, proving the RS-GP's versatility. Read our in-depth analysis on the championship dynamics and rider statistics right here on Sportrik.
