“Of course I’m happy to be back, it’s a great feeling to be back and especially to do it at one of my favorite songs. Whatever the circumstances, I really enjoyed riding in Texas and have amazing memories there. We have some work to do after missing two races and also Argentina at the weekend so I’m not here to set goals at the moment. There is much to do and consider, but the important thing is that we got back to the bike this weekend.

Marquez’s record around the Texan circuit speaks for itself, only missing out on victory once he crashed while taking the lead in 2019. Even with his historic pace on the track, Marquez isn’t chasing glory right away and is aiming for the weekend to get back up to speed with the Repsol Honda Team RC213V and continue building his feel and speed on the new machine.

Pol Espargaro arrives in the United States with a point to prove after crashing while chasing the podium in Argentina. Despite a mixed Saturday, Espargaro and his team were all set to put together a powerful race that showcased a lot of riders and cyclists’ potential ahead of the fall. In 2021, Espargaro finished 10th in Texas on the RC213V – his top 10 in the US circuit.

“After the disappointment of the last race, I look forward to riding again this week. Austin wasn’t the easiest lap for us last year but with the new bike it was fun to come and compare what we did last year with this year. It looks like there will be a lot of people involved in this year’s championship, so we need to get back to scoring and focus on weekends like the beginning of the year. It’s time to get some extra points on the board and start building something.”

Aleix Espargaro topped the MotoGP World Championship with 45 points after three races, Pol Espargaro just 25 points behind and despite missing two stages, Marquez is 34 points away from the top. With 18 races still to run, and a potential 450 points, this is still a championship for a lot of people.
