Austin is resurfaced to three months for the visit of MotoGP

With less than three months to go before the MotoGP Grand Prix to be held there on April 10, the promoters of the test do not want the multitude of complaints from the riders that have been accumulating in recent editions to be reproduced. . Especially in the last one, which took place at the beginning of October, which highlighted the high level of danger on the track at various points, as a result of the poor condition of the cement.

“More or less it is in the same state as the circuit where I normally train doing motocross. There are potholes in the most delicate turns. The circuit is not safe enough”, declared Fabio Quartararo during the weekend of the last test, summarizing the opinion of all his colleagues on the grid.

The most “dangerous” section, as many defined it, was the one between turn 2 and 11, plagued by tremendous potholes, many of them imperceptible to the eyes of the drivers. In the safety commission on Saturday, the runners were absolutely clear: either that sector [between turns 2 and 11] is resurfaced, or in 2022 there would be no race. Apparently, aside from the asphalt itself, the biggest problem lay in the movement of the earth on which the pavement sits, which with heavy rains lost consistency and encouraged the creation of those ripples on the surface that made life impossible. to the pilots.

 

After years of harsh criticism, those in charge of managing the Austin layout announced that in the last month they have been applied to renovating the sections of the circuit that most needed intervention.

Hand in hand with companies specialized in this type of work, the Circuit of the Americas in Austin (COTA) was subjected to a series of analyzes that agreed that the most affected areas, located, effectively, between curves 2 and 10, as well as between 12 and 16.
