SKOR.id – MotoGP Americas di Austin telah menjadi teritori Marc Marquez. Permbalap Repsol Honda ini sukses memenanginya sejak pertama kali digelar pada musim 2013 hingga 2018.

Sejak itu, tiga balapan MotoGP berikutnya di Circuit of The Americas (COTA), tiga rider gantian menang: Alex Rins (2019), Marquez (2021) dan Enea Bastianini (2022). Sementara musim 2020 MotoGP Amerika absen akibat pandemi Covid-19.

Dengan absennya Marquez dan Bastianini, yang tahun ini memperkuat Ducati Lenovo Team, di MotoGP Americas akibat cedera, tentunya menjadi kesempatan emas bagi Rins unjuk gigi.

Di antara para pembalap yang ada dalam grid kelas premier, rider LCR Honda itu adalah salah satu yang menonjol sebagai kandidat kejutan di COTA. Ini bisa dilihat dari rekam jejak Rins.

Musim 2023 memang periode pertamanya balapan bersama Honda serta masih perlu adaptasi dengan motor RC213V, yang dikenal tidak mudah dikendarai, terutama pada tahap awal kejuaraan.

Namun, sejak COTA, sirkuit yang terletak di Austin, Texas, Amerika Serikat, dimasukkan dalam kalender MotoGP 10 tahun lalu, Alex Rins menjadi pembalap dengan koleksi kemenangan paling banyak kedua setelah Marc Marquez.      

Bahkan, catatan Rins lebih lengkap dibanding Marquez. Ia pertama kali menang musim 2013 di kategori Moto3, kemudian mengulang kesuksesan itu di Moto2 pada 2016 sebelum di MotoGP 2019.

Dengan kata lain, pembalap Spanyol tersebut tahu bagaimana cara menang di COTA dengan tiga motor berbeda dalam kelas berbeda. Ini jelas nilai tambah yang membuatnya perlu diperhitungkan.

Faktor signifikan lain yang mendukung Alex Rins adalah fakta bahwa Honda merupakan pabrikan paling berjaya di MotoGP Americas. Mereka tujuh kali menang di COTA, meski semuanya diraih lewat Marquez.

Lebih jauh, rapor Rins dalam balapan kelas premier di Austin terbilang impresif. Dari tiga lomba terakhir MotoGP Americas, ia menang pada 2019, finis P4 musim 2021 dan menjadi runner-up tahun 2022.

“Saya senang bisa kembali ke Austin! Ini adalah trek yang sangat saya suka dan saya percaya kami dapat melakukan pekerjaan bagus. Setelah apa yang terjadi di Argentina, kami punya motivasi ekstra untuk putaran ini,” ujar Rins dalam rilis LCR Honda.

Akhir pekan MotoGP Americas dijadwalkan berlangsung mulai Jumat (14/4/2023) dengan sesi latihan dan kualifikasi dan sprint race hari Sabtu (15/4/2023). Lalu puncaknya main race pada Minggu (16/4/2023).
