MotoGP, Carlo Pernat: “Rossi has once again proven himself to be a racing beast, but so has Álex Rins”

Charles Pernat remains an informed observer of the MotoGP paddock which he surveys as manager of the sulphurous Andrea Iannone. While waiting for the latter to reveal himself in a favorable light while riding the Aprilia, he gives his evaluations on past meetings. The last one in Austin was no exception. Between stainless Red, the revelation of Rins and the worrying concerns at Honda, there is plenty to debate…

The first praise goes to the Doctor: “ Valentino proved once again that he is number 1 at Yamaha. He was great. This could have been his race, but he met another great driver who is Álex Rins. It's a shame he made a mistake in the end. It doesn't look like him at all. Perhaps we should have waited a little longer. But he is and remains a beast, a born runner, and this also applies to Álex Rins ».

« Even if he has to go further, we can still say that he can still compete with the best in the race »Says Feathered about the winner from Austin, who won his first success in the MotoGP category on the Texan circuit. “ With a team that has less budget than Honda and Yamaha, he took an important step forward and also developed mentally. He also benefited from the experience of Davide Brivio. Suzuki has regained its former strength ».

On the case Marc Márquez, the Italian declared on GPone: “ in Austin, Marc Márquez was again on the track like an alien, but he was too easy. Many thought he would win easily, and then this stupid accident happened. That’s how it works sometimes in racing. He is still an exceptional performer, but if I were Honda, I would still be concerned about the many problems encountered. I sincerely hope that the overall potential of the RC213V has not deteriorated in the favored development of the engine ". A question that will deserve to be answered at the next meeting in Jerez…
