The Malaysian Moto2 Grand Prix was a very positive weekend for Alex Escrig, who delivered one of his best performances of the season at the demanding Sepang circuit. The Spanish rider maintained a competitive pace from the first practice sessions and finished Sunday with an excellent eighth place in the race.
Since Friday, Escrig has shown confidence and speed, securing direct access to Q2 for the first time this year and securing a position on the third row of the grid. This result reflected the step forward he has taken in recent races and the consistency he has achieved in his performance.
The race was marked by a red flag in the early laps, forcing a second start. After the restart, Alex remained firmly in the leading group, riding at a solid pace and showing maturity in every phase of the race. He finally crossed the finish line in eighth position, scoring important points and feeling very positive about the end of the championship.
"I am very satisfied with the work we are doing. Step by step, we are seeing the fruits of our efforts. We always give our all, and seeing how that work is reflected on the track makes me very happy. This weekend was very positive, and I am happy with the pace we maintained in all sessions. I thank the team for their constant support. We will continue in this vein to finish the season in the best possible way," said Alex at the end of the race.
With this result, Escrig consolidates his progress in the intermediate category and faces the final rounds of the World Championship with the confidence that he can continue to advance. The next event will be at the Portimão circuit, where he will seek to maintain the same momentum and close out the year with another outstanding result.
