JAKARTA - The 2025 MotoGP will enter its third series this weekend. After Thailand and Argentina, now MotoGP is entering the United States, precisely at the American Circuit or COTA (Circuit of the Americas).

At this circuit, Ducati racer Marc Marquez has a great chance of continuing his victory after winning the Thai and Argentine series.

This is because Marquez is still very dominant on this circuit, with a record seven wins and seven pole positions. This record is the best record for a rider at COTA.

Apart from Marquez, the potential for surprises at this circuit can also come from Maverick Vinales, who has not yet "telerated" with his new motorbike from Red Bull KTM Tech3, who in two series got his best finishing position at P12.

In the race in America later, Vinales has the opportunity to at least perform better because he managed this circuit last season with Aprilia. At that time, Vinales wiped Sprint and the main race with a win.

Not only winning in two racing sessions, the Spaniard also holds a record all time lap record and best pole with 2 minutes 0.864 seconds, and a best race lap with 2 minutes 2.275 seconds he won in 2024. In the previous season, Vinales also recorded a top speed record of 356.4 km/h in the 2023 season.

The American MotoGP will start today at 22.45-23.30 WIB with a free practice session 1 and will end on Monday (31/3) in the main race 20 lap at 02.00 WIB in the morning.
