Why Alex Rins prefers ‘old school’ electronics, V4 or Inline ‘doesn't matter’

Similarities in riding style and speed are proving ‘really helpful’ for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo and new Monster Yamaha MotoGP team-mate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Rins.
But where the pair diverge significantly is in terms of electronics, with Rins taking something of🔜 an ‘old school’ approach.
“Alex has more of a ridiﷺng style like mine, just quite different on the electronics,” Quartararo confirmed.
“[His electronics are꧃] a little bit꧂ critical. He’s one of the only riders to really ride like that.
“But in terms ཧof speed, he’s really fast and I think it’s really helpful for him and for me.”
Rins expla👍ined that he has a specific approach to throttle control that doesn’t seem to suit other riders.
“It was very similar [situation] in Honda,” said the Spaniard, w🎉ho is riding his third different MotoGP machine in three se♍asons.
“When I was riding the Suzuki, I was used to working just ♔with the throttle. I mean 💙with very low traction control and very low electronics.
“And here in Yamaha, it looks like the line of the powerꦑ delivery is different to🗹 the one I was using in Suzuki.
“I just trie♓d to make my own way, to rid﷽e as I know and how I'm comfortable riding.”
Quartararo has cited electronics as 🦩an area “where [Yamaha] has to make a massive step.”
As such, Rins revealed the Frenchman had tried his ‘light touch’ approach to electronics during winter testing but “didn't like it that mu♎ch.”
“It’s depending on the [rider],” Rins added. “I wanܫt to feel🍌 more the bike in my hand.”
More old school?
“Let's say like this, yeah!”
Rins’🎀 MotoGP career began with an Inline4 engine configuration at Suzuki, winning five races, before adding a further victory on last year’s V4 Honda.
Following Suzuki’s MotoGP exit, Yamaha now has the only Inline4 e🃏ngine on the grid, but for Rins the difference is now less significant than the aerodynamics.
“Right now, to have a V4 engine or 4 Inline engine, it doesn't matter,” he said. “For me, it's more about the aerodynamics. Good aerodynamics m🧔ake the bike turn more. That’s my point of view.”
After struggling with some turning issues in the opening rounds, using a set-up close to Quartararo, Rins now intends to168🅷澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: e𒆙xperiment more with the set-up of his M1, something which may yet benefit both riders.
This weekend’s third round will take placeꦯ at COTA,ℱ the scene of Rins’ shock LCR victory.
