PRESS RELEASE

A fantastic affirmation for Aprilia in Greece, where the final round of the international Supermoto took place, awarding the S2 Manufacturers’ Titles to the twin SXV 5.5. The 2nd place obtained by Christian Iddon in Race 1 and Nestor Jorge's victory (racing the SXV 5.5 VDB Replica for the Spanish satellite team, BQR) were decisive in winning the constructor title, thanks to a last-minute comeback. It was an Aprilia double in the S1 with Thierry Van Den Bosch (SXV 4.5) who, although he won 10 heats out of 16, placed 2nd in the S1 Riders' as Aprilia finished 2nd in the S1 Manufacturers.
