Aleix Espargaro has cast doubt on his chances of making it back-to-back MotoGP wins this weekend.
The Aprilia rider took his first MotoGP win of 2023 and first since Argentina at the beginning of 2022, after overcoming Francesco Bagnaia in sensational style at Silverstone.
"We have an important challenge in front of us this weekend, this track is difficult for Aprilia and for my riding style," said Espargaro in the pre-event press conference. "It is fast in the mid-corner, fast on long corners, but the stop-and-go is difficult. We are looking for better traction and more turn.
Asked what he’s learned about becoming a two-time winner, Espargaro said:"To win is very difficult so you must celebrate every victory.
