Rins’ first Sunday MotoGP finish since America "like a podium" in Indonesia
LCR Honda rider Alex Rins had a strong start with the Japanese manufacturer, winning their only race in 2023 at the Americas GP in April. However, his season took a downturn with consecutive crashes in Spain and France, followed by a serious leg break in the Italian GP sprint. This injury forced Rins to sit out for nine rounds and delay his racing comeback until the recent Indonesian GP. Despite struggling with pain and physical condition, Rins managed to finish ninth, the top Honda rider in the race. He considered this result a great achievement, given the challenges he faced during his recovery period. Rins mentioned that he fought hard during the months without racing and thanked his team and physiotherapist for their support. He acknowledged the need for improvement but expressed his satisfaction with the performance in the race, especially considering the tough conditions and slippery track.
