JAKARTA – WithU Yamaha RNF rider, Andrea Dovizioso, is ready to give a surprise at MotoGP Argentina, this weekend. He is eyeing the podium to enliven the competition on the standings board.
The race in Argentina will take place at the Termas de Rio Hondo Circuit on Monday, April 4. The Italian rider came with two points from two race series that he has passed this season.
In the previous race at the Mandalika Circuit, Dovizioso even failed to finish. The former Ducati rider had problems with his motorbike.
"After a bad result in Indonesia, I want to get back on track and do better," said Dovizioso as quoted from Motorsport Italia.

On paper, the circuit in Argentina is in favor of the Yamaha M1 ridden by Dovizioso. In addition, the Forli racer was also recorded as successfully grabbing the third podium during the last race there with Ducati in 2018.
MotoGP hasn't raced on an Argentinian track for the past two years so track conditions will be difficult to tell, but the M1 looks like a good fit for the track. Especially in 2019 when Valentino Rossi was able to climb the podium here.
Therefore, on paper, it seems that the Iwata motorcycle manufacturer has all the credentials to fight for the top spot in Argentina later.
"At Mandalika we had the ability to do good things, but we didn't have the chance to prove it. The Termas de Rio Hondo circuit is quite special, we haven't (race) there for two years," said Dovizioso.
"So I'm curious to see what the conditions will be like when we arrive. Anyway, we got there with optimism, I think it could be a good track for Yamaha."
