168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Aleix Espargaro returns to the scene of the ‘best weekend of his life’, as the local star seeks a repeat of last year’s dream MotoGP double in Catalunya.

Born in Granollers, within sight of the Barcelona track, Espargaro suffered the misery of a last-lap mix-up tha🐎t cost him✃ a podium in 2022.

But he rebounded in style last season, beating world champion Francesco Bagnaia for victory in the Sprint before leading a historic Aprilia 1-2 with team-mate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Maverick Vinales in the grand prix.

Espargaro returns with only oꦯne Sprint rostrum appearance so far this 🐭season, and yet to announce if he will race on in 2025.

“Barcelona is a track that I really like a lot - it’s ౠmy h꧅ome race,” Espargaro said.

“The track suits my style well because there are fast turns and not many slow hairpins. It’s a 𓆏track where the bike works well.

“Last year was the best weekend of my life and it won’t be easy to repeat that, bu🔯t we’ll try to give i💦t our all and get back out front.”

Countryman Vinales is the top non-Ducati rider in the world championship in fifth place, but absent from the Sunday podium since his bܫrilliant COTA double.

“Montmeló is a track that I like. I have a lot of g🀅ood memories. When I’m here, I think of Luis Salom and th💦at is great motivation for me,” Vinales said of his friend Salom, who lost his life at the circuit in 2016.

“It’s my home race and my whole fan clꩵub is there, so it’s a track where I really want to do well. We are ready to have a good week𓂃end. Our mentality is to stay focused so we’ll do well and to give it one hundred percent.”

The big question will now be if the low grip character of the Barcelona track once again plays spectacularly into the♉ RS-GP’s hands this weekend.
