alex rins will make his debut in MotoGP next year, a privilege coupled with the opportunity for official status, since the Spaniard was preferred at Suzuki to the Frenchman Johann zarco. Favorable omens which also put pressure. Because we are less forgiving of a factory driver, even if he takes his first steps in the premier category. Rins will team up with the virile Iannone who will be keen to show that Ducati was wrong in leaving him for Dovizioso. But it's Vinales that worries the Spaniard.
It’s quite a challenge that presents itself to Alex Rins. He left Moto2 somewhat disappointed not to play for the world title until the end and from his first laps with the Suzuki GSX-RR, he fell heavily only to injure his vertebrae. Injuries that kept him away from offseason tests when he so needed to ride and get used to the new world that awaits him.
Complicated beginnings that the person concerned would now like to leave behind him. He reappeared in public during a promotional event in Madrid to reassure and provide news. He is feeling better and thinking about next season, not taking his designated teammate as a reference point. Iannone, but one Maverick Vinales who left with a victory to join Yamaha: “ with Maverick, we have often competed during our careers. He had two good seasons which means that I have to take his results as an example. And they're not bad at all ».
« It puts a bit of pressure on me and it will probably cost me a bit. I always rode against him. He adapted very quickly and did a very good job. I hope to reach his level quickly ". A good intention, but the step is high: “ It is true that MotoGP requires much more physically. The first day with the Suzuki made me very tired, well before lunchtime! My injury delayed my training, but I gradually got back to it. I have recharged my batteries and I still have a month before the start again. I am optimistic ».
