P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Alex Rins finished 13th in the Portuguese Grand Prix, behind Quartararo. This was only his second competitive weekend with Yamaha after switching from LCR Honda. Despite improving from the Qatar Grand Prix, he faced similar issues in Portimao as in Losail. Rins realized he needs a different direction to understand the 2024-spec M1 better. Yamaha held a private test at Portimao to address the gap between Japanese and European marques in the championship. However, due to track conditions, the test was not entirely useful.
