The MotoGP World Cup team is moving to Austin, Texas, for the “The Americas” circuit for the third Grand Prix of the season following Qatar and Argentina.
The race is scheduled to take place on Sunday, 22 April, on the runway that is 5,513 km long, 1.2 km straight, 15 meters wide and 9 turns left and 9 right. Among the features of this piste is a 41-meter-long climb and a downhill at the end of the mainline where there is a left turn.
Favorites – Marc Marquez is the undisputed master of this circuit, which has won five times in five editions. Honda’s driver, much discussed after the controversial controversy with Valentino Rossi during the Argentine Grand Prix, is the favorite for success.
Dani Pedrosa (Honda) will be there. The presence of the Spanish pilot was in doubt after the operation he was doing in the injured hand after the accident he suffered in the Argentine race since the first lap.
The operation went well and the recovery period has gone well and in record time Pedrosa has received the “OK” of doctors to be on track this weekend regularly. Pedrosa suffered a fracture, making mandatory surgery performed in Barcelona, but now everything has been recovered and the Spaniard will be in the race.
The tests will start Friday, April 20 at 16:00./Flashsport24
