MotoGP | GP Jerez 2023: Back to Europe. Dates, times and info

MotoGP GP Jerez – After the emotions of the American GP, ​​MotoGP returns to Europe, next stop Jerez for the Spanish Grand Prix.

Alex Rins took his first victory aboard the Honda in Austin and will now have to demonstrate that he is fast even on more "traditional" tracks. The Spaniard's victory came after the crash of Francesco Bagnaia, who made a mistake while leading the race. The Italian driver's only opponent seems to be himself. He has already left many points along the way and although there are still many to be awarded, in a season like this year where anyone can do well, it is important to remain consistent.

Enea Bastianini will return to Jerez, certainly with a great desire to do, but Marc Marquez could also return and will have to take back the reins of the Honda and demonstrate that Rins is not the only winning Honda.

In a hard-fought season like this year's, Martin, Zarco, Marini and Bezzecchi must also be considered fighting for victory. All Ducatis ready to battle.

Not to be underestimated are the Aprilias of Maverick Vinales and Aleix Espargarò who continue to grow and are now ready to return to the top step of the podium.

After the good performance in Argentina, Franco Morbidelli is struggling again in Texas, we will see if he will return to fighting for the top positions on the European circuits.
