Aleix Espargaro heads to Argentina for the Termas de Rio Hondo debut

The NGM Forward Racing Team heads to Argentina for the third round of the 2014 MotoGP Championship. This weekend will be the debut of the Argentina GP race at Termas de Rio Hondo, with only a very few riders having visited the track last year.

Inaugurated in 2008, the circuit was modernized and enlarged in 2012 with the purpose of turning it into South America’s most modern, safe and vibrant circuit. There is a lot of expectation for this race weekend, as MotoGP returns to Argentina for the first time since 1999.

For the NGM Forward Racing riders it will be a complete new track, as they were not among the riders who tested at Termas de Rio Hondo last year. After a 4th and a 9th place finish so far this season, Aleix Espargaro looks forward to a strong race in Argentina.

“After the Texas GP I had some time to rest a little bit at home and now I look forward to the Argentina GP. We were not among the riders who did a test session there last year, but anyway it will be new for most of us. It will be important to try to work well during the whole weekend in order to prepare the race in the best possible way and arrive at the race with a good set up to fight with the front guys”.
