CFMOTO–Aspar eye MotoGP leap

The partnership between Aspar Team and CFMOTO, recently extended through 2031, has grown into a long‑term project aimed at taking the step into MotoGP. The renewed agreement boosts investment in technology and infrastructure, reinforcing a joint vision that follows several seasons together in Moto3 and Moto2. Team founder Jorge Martinez confirmed that the squad is preparing for the move, supported by CFMOTO’s expanding commitment, though no precise timeline exists. Martinez suggested the jump could take three or even five years, stressing that entering MotoGP in 2027 is impossible due to new regulations and the need to build a complete structure gradually.

CFMOTO’s involvement is seen as strategically important, with the manufacturer increasing its presence across global racing, including Superbike. Aspar leadership highlights how MotoGP itself is eager to welcome a major Chinese brand, which could attract new partners and potentially pave the way for a Chinese Grand Prix. Martinez believes such growth would make the sport more international.
