  "summary": "Aprilia Racing continue to face challenges with their RS-GP motorcycle at the Sepang International Circuit, particularly when accelerating out of slow corners following heavy braking. Despite significant improvements throughout the 2026 season, Aprilia Racing's director Antonio Boselli highlighted that certain aspects of the motorcycle still require refinement to ensure consistent performance across all circuits.
