In this case, everyone is optimistic. The nature of this spectacular track and the way it puts the technical and human aspects to the test have always made the Portuguese asphalt at the top of the rider and team popularity lists.<\/p>\n<p>For Aleix, who had an outstanding weekend in Portim\u00e3o in April, the goal of a good final rider placement remains priority number one. Currently eighth in the overall standings, the Spanish rider\u2019s efforts have been rewarded in developing an RS-GP that has achieved an extremely high level of competitiveness. He already has one podium under his belt this season and he still has a shot, albeit with great effort, at moving up a few more positions in the overall standings.<\/p>\n<p>Maverick Vi\u00f1ales will be tackling the Portuguese race comforted by the good performance he demonstrated on his comeback ride in Misano where he finished right behind his teammate after starting from the nineteenth spot on the grid and where he was among the fastest in the race. His growing feeling with the Italian bike makes him optimistic for a 2021 finale that will give him the right momentum to prepare for a fundamental 2022 season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n<table class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextContent\" valign=\"top\">\n<div><strong>ALEIX ESPARGARO&#8217;<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>&#8220;We are headed back to Portim\u00e3o in very different conditions compared with the first race, both in terms of the weather and because we\u2019ve had the chance to get to know the new RS-GP better in the meantime.

That is precisely our goal &#8211; to continue getting to know this new bike and the alchemy with my riding style. That helps us to better prepare for 2022 and, in the meantime, why not try to take home some satisfaction before the end of the season, right?&#8221;<\/em><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" valign=\"top\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The inevitable changes to the MotoGP calendar mean that riders and teams will have another round in Portugal, in the Algarve region, for a second GP at the circuit of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":30182,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[20,28],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18203","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-motogp-en","category-race-report-motogp-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.3 -
