Me too, he earned it, he should wear it if he wishes, as long as Aprilia does not advertise in some form or fashion that the Aprilia bike itself is the winner.

Lawson took the #1 plate to Cagiva but that was a different time
I agree. He's earned it and while I believe he wants to run it, I keep hearing a little voice saying he will not. I'm probably way off base but I've been getting a feeling that Jorge is a bit of a humble guy. He's also no longer on the best bike and podiums will be difficult to come by in 2025. Having the #1 as an also ran isn't a good look but I know nothing of such things.
That might be a reason why Aprilia doesn't want him to use #1 (if that's the case).
Number 1 shows this guy was the best rider on the grid in the last season. If Jörg is running 11th with that number it indicates the bike isn't very good.
