🏁 Texas Thrills and Spills: A Weekend of High Drama for Italjet Gresini Racing

Everything's bigger in Texas, and Round 3 at the Circuit of the Americas didn't hold back. From rain-soaked practice sessions to edge-of-your-seat races, this weekend delivered raw emotion, resilience, and a podium that shakes up the championship standings.

Moto2: Grit in the Face of Adversity

Let's start where our heart beats loudest, Moto2.

 

Italjet Gresini riders Albert Arenas and Darryn Binder came into COTA fired up. The Texan track's heavy braking zones seemed tailor-made for Albert's aggressive riding style while Darryn was building confidence after Argentina. But the circuit had other plans.

Friday was a washout. Torrential rain threw a wrench into setup work, and Binder had a small off-track moment early on. He bounced back fast, a testament to his fighting spirit. Arenas pushed hard through tricky conditions, slowly unlocking pace.

 

Then came Saturday's blow: Binder crashed in Q1, breaking a bone in his hand. Just like that, he was out of Sunday's race and heading for surgery. Tough break, but he'll be back.

 

Arenas kept the flame burning for Italjet, qualifying 20th and choosing slicks for the main race in a bold, last-minute gamble. Unfortunately, the conditions didn't play ball, and he crossed the line in P24.

 

It wasn't the result we came for, but these weekends build champions. The Moto2 paddock is relentless, and so are we. Qatar's next. Eyes forward.

🏆 MotoGP: Alex Márquez Rockets to the Top

While our Moto2 boys battled hard, Alex Márquez lit up COTA with a show-stopping ride in the premier class. After a storming Sprint performance, he delivered again in the Grand Prix, grabbing P2 on the podium after Marc Márquez went down in a dramatic twist.

 

That silver medal? It shines gold in the standings. Alex now leads the MotoGP World Championship with 87 points.

 

That's right. The Gresini squad now stands at the Top of MotoGP.

 

Alex rode with precision, guts, and the cool of a veteran. It's a performance that echoes throughout the garage, lifting the whole Gresini family, Moto2 included.

🔥 One Team. One Passion. One Goal.

We leave Texas with mixed emotions: pride, frustration, fire in the belly. But the message is clear, we're in the fight.

 

From the crafted precision of the KALEX/Triumph and Ducati machines to the fearless men who throw a leg over them, this is a story still being written. The next chapter drops in Qatar, and we're coming back swinging.

Stay loud, stay proud and let's ride.
