Alex Rins describes “unbelievable” French MotoGP featuring tyre gambles, zero grip and double bike swap.
“In a dramatic French MotoGP, Alex Rins faced challenging decisions and changing weather conditions at Le Mans, opting for wet tires for the restart alongside eventual winner Johann Zarco. However, as Yamaha struggled for grip in damp conditions, Rins second-guessed his choice and eventually switched to slick tires due to improved weather. Despite his efforts, Rins had to pit twice, falling back to 19th before a strong comeback to finish 12th. Rins highlighted the difficulties faced with grip issues on the Yamaha M1 in both dry and wet conditions. While battling through the race, Rins managed to recover time on Honda’s Luca Marini but ran out of laps to overtake. Ultimately, Rins was the only Yamaha rider to finish the race, with his teammates and other competitors crashing out in the challenging conditions.”
