2025 Americas MotoGP: Friday practice as it happened
Live text coverage of Friday practice for the 2025 MotoGP Americas Grand Prix
The 2025 MotoGP season heads to the United States for rou♛nd three, with Marc Marquez 🌼looking to keep up his 100% win record this weekend at the Americas Grand Prix.
The 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:factory Ducatiꦇ rider has made a perfect start to life with the Italian marque's works squad, having qualified on pole and won both races at the opening two rounds of the season in Thailand and Argentina.
The Circuit of the Americas has been a happy hunting ground for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez over the years📖, with the Spaniard winning seven times at the Texan venue - including his maiden premier class success in 2013.
With most predicting him to dominate this weekend, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marquez warned on Thursday in the pre-even press conference that COTA was the only race he crashed out of during his "perfe🥃ct" 2🍌019 campaign. Therefore, he is not getting carried away.
Having pushed him hard in the Argentina GP, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Marquez will be looking to go one better than the second-♊place he has so far finished in every race of 2025.
The Gresini rider doesn't have a stellar record at COTA, but he is confident that he will be competitive this🌟 weekend g✱iven how good he feels on his GP24 Ducati.
All eyes will be on 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pecco Bagnaia and if he can get himself int𒐪o victory contention after a difficult start to the campa✤ign in the opening two rounds.
The double world champion said after finishing a distant fourth in Argentina that he could look to revert to the GP24 from Austin - 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:comments he backtracked on, claim⭕ing he didn't put across whꩲat he meant to say.
Typically not a strong circuit for Bagnaia, he believes he has pace enough to be better at COTA than he was at Termas de Rio Hondo two weeks ꦉago.
COTA represents the most recent venue at which Honda has won a grand prix, after 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Rins guided his LCR-run RC213V to the Americas GP win in💜 2023.
After a strong weekend in Argentina, in which 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Johann Zarco qualified on the front row and cracked the to🦂p six in both races, Honda is well-placed to impress agaꩲin.
MotoGP FP1 begins at 3:45pm GMT, with Prac🎶tice at 8pm GMT.
