JAKARTA - Suzuki Ecstar racer, Alex Rins, remains calm even though there has been no talk of a new contract. There is something that makes him feel relaxed in responding to his future in the team.

Alex Rins admits that there have been no official talks regarding the contract for MotoGP 2023. However, there has been some kind of "signal" from Suzuki's management.

"We haven't started talking about next season, but there are good things, it keeps me calm," Rins said in an interview with MotoGP.

"Livio (Suppo) and the officials in Japan told me they wanted to continue together. So now I'm calmer and I can race better."

"Let's see, my manager will start talking to Suzuki about next season," he continued.

Livio Suppo did say that his team's focus was on renewing the contracts of Alex Rins and his teammate, Joan Mir. However, they did not want to rush.

"We know there are some riders who have signed (contracts with the team), but the market is still quite open," said Livio.

"Before the start of the season we were happy with our riders, and now we can see the results of the first few races. We are still very happy with them," the Suzuki Ecstar boss continued.
