Alex Rins said. “Unbelievable. From the start I was so calm. I did a really good start. In the end I tried to manage the distance with the guy on the back. It's amazing. This first position is for all the fans who always come here to the track in Aragón.
I'm full of emotion! At the beginning of the season I really struggled a lot, and since then the team and I have worked so hard, and now we've won and it feels amazing! I was not sure that I could win from 10th on the grid, but I was able to do it! When I was chasing down the riders in front of me I could feel that I had good pace and the bike was working really well. I felt really relaxed despite having Marquez and Joan close behind, and I managed the pressure. It will be tricky to replicate this again next weekend, but for sure I will try my best! It feels super to be back on the top step!”- Gran Premio Michelin® de Aragón Race Results
