JAKARTA - The 2022 MotoGP race will continue at the Catalunya Circuit, Barcelona, this weekend. In this race, there was something different from Aprilia Racing's Aleix Esparagaro.
The Spaniard will wear a special helmet. Aleix Espargaro will wear a helmet livery dedicated to his princess, Mia.
The driver's helmet is now wrapped in pink with the words MIA on the back.
In addition, this helmet was specially made to express gratitude to the team of doctors who had helped save the baby's life. Please note, Aleix Espargaro's daughter had heart complications when she was born.
"Four years ago, here during the Barcelona GP, my twins were born and my daughter had a problem with her heart. She had two operations, and I suffered a lot at that time. Thanks to CorAll Family and the team of doctors who made everything possible," said Espargaro, reported by Antara from the MotoGP page.
"I feel that I have come at this time and have had such a huge impact on people, society, so this is my way of thanking them, and paying homage to them," he continued.
The former Suzuki rider added: "Mia is too young to realize this, but for the doctors, for everyone in the CorAll Family, this is my way of saying thank you to them."
Espargaro arrived in Catalunya as one of the serious challengers for the 2022 MotoGP title. Currently, Pol Espargaro's brother is entrenched in second place with a difference of eight points from Fabio Quartararo who holds the top of the standings.
"This year feels completely different because I arrived in the best condition of my career, fighting up front, so it's been fantastic," he said.
"I feel very good and will try to enjoy it as much as possible, working hard from FP1 to get the bike ready and give my best on Sunday," concluded Aleix Espargaro.
