Alex Rins: “I need to write a book” after wild French MotoGP
Alex Rins describes “unbelievable” French MotoGP featuring tyre g♒ambles, zero gr🍒ip and double bike swap.

An “unbelievable” French MotoGP saw 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Rins navigate a series of “stressful” decisio𒀰ns, bike swaps and tyre gambles at Le Mans.
Rins joined eventual home winner Johann Zarco♌ in correctly choosing wet tyres for the restart.
But Yamaha’s lack of grip in damp conditions and the topsy-turvy weather soon saw Rins second-guess ✱his decision.
“This was a race to put in the books,” said Rins. “For sure, I need to write all the🐟se things in a book when I'm retired! Because it was unbelievable - the stress, the decisions, everything!”
The Monster Yꦚamaha rider explained that after checki꧂ng the weather radar, he was “100% convinced” rain was coming and needed to start the original race on wets.
The rest of the grid agreed, with all riders piling into the pit lane at the end of the warm-up lap, causing an automatic delay🌸ed start.
But wit🌄h the weather then improving, 13 riders dived into the pits again, this time to change back to slick tyres, on the sighting lap for the restart.
Meanwhile, Rins, Zarco and others෴ stuck it out on wets.
“Like Zarco, Miller and the others, I was on the grid with wets and this was correct, but then we were struggling so much with our꧂ bike in the wet,” said Rins.
“So I thought, 'Let's try the slicks' ಌbecause the feeling was super bad. Super slippery, w♉ith zero grip.”

Rins pulled ܫin to change to slicks, but the rain returned just a few laps later, forcing him back into the pits for a second time, changing to wets and returning in 19th.
“The problem was that I came in twice, one more time than most of the others [who 🔥started on slicks],” he added. “I tried to manage the race by staying calm, because it was very delicate to find the limit on track.”
Ri🎉n🔜s eventually climbed to 12th at the flag, aided by incidents ahead, and almost caught Honda’s Luca Marini.
“I tried riding different lines, and thanks to this, I was able to ride 1'46s laps. I recovere🤪d 16 seconds to Marini - I was just missing some laps to overtake him.”
But the M1’s grip issues in the tricky conditions were clear: “We have problems in the dry and when it's wet these proble🙈ms increase… There is zero grip. The electronics cannot manage the low grip on the bike.”
Rins’ team-mate Fabio Quartararo, plus Pramac riders Jack Miller and Miguel Oliveira all cras𝔉hed out at the same final corner, leaving Rins as the only Yamaha to see the chequered flag.
