Rins feels like 2024 Yamaha MotoGP bike “rides me”
One year ago, the Spaniard achieved a surprising first Honda win at the Circuit of the Americas while riding for the LCR team, which turned out to be HRC’s sole victory that season. Transitioning from one uncompetitive bike to another in the factory Yamaha for the 2024 season, Rins envisions a repeat triumph in Texas. Despite struggling in the initial races and managing a 13th place finish at the Portuguese GP, Rins feels he hasn’t yet adjusted to the M1. Acknowledging his dream of another COTA win, Rins emphasizes the need for hard work and improvement in performance. Despite ongoing challenges with the bike’s setup and balance, Rins looks forward to testing new solutions to enhance his performance in future races on the familiar Texas track.
