Aprilia USA will sponsor a single RSV Mille R road racing team in the 2002 Formula USA Series.

The company now sponsors two teams, Blackmans Racing and BFR/Pro Italia Racing.

Blackmans Racing is thought to have the inside track on a deal renewal because Blackmans Cycles invested a substantial amount of its own money in the two-rider team, which fielded Tray Batey and Mike Himmelsbach throughout 2001. Chris Carr also rode with the team, at the spring and fall Daytona rounds.
