Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP will have a major reinforcement in Álex Rins next year, and the former LCR Honda rider admits that, despite his short time on the bike, he feels better and better.
The rider, who suffered a lot in 2023 with injuries, assured Sport, quoted by Motosan, that physically he is at full capacity: ‘Every time I get on the bike, I get better. I notice the steps we’re taking to improve. From the first time I tested the bike to the last time, which was in Valencia, the truth is that I was much more comfortable, almost 100 per cent’.
He continued: ‘When I tested the bike, it was the fourth day I’d been riding non-stop, well, I lie, we had a little rest day in between, but it wasn’t much. It surprised me because the pain I had was too much, when the most logical thing is that it’s too little’.
The Yamaha rider missed a large part of the race due to a fracture in his right leg suffered at Mugello, and ended up with 54 points.
