Aprilia Racing CEO Massimo Rivola says he doesn't know whether the cancellation of Sunday's Australian Grand Prix was good or bad for his team, given Jorge Martín's absence through injury.
The marque's lead rider Martin broke his arm on Saturday while fighting for the sprint win, losing the championship lead to Marc Marquez. From his perspective, the cancellation is seen as a small relief and a slight opportunity to remain in the title fight, as not racing prevents his Ducati rival from extending his 10-point lead in the standings.
