‘The Doctཧor’ is the most recent rider in the premier class to win two consecutive races with different manufacturers.

Rins won the 2022 season-finale in Valencia with Suzuki and has now joined Honda, so victory at this weekend’s 2023 curtain-raising 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Portuguese MotoGP would put him in the history books.

Rossi achieved the feat at𒁃 the first grand prix of 20♔04 in South Africa, on his first appearance with Yamaha.

He had previously won the final race of 2003, the Valencia MotoGP, with Honda - bringing to a close a relationship which🎶 earned him his first three championships in the premier class.

But his move to Yamaha, beginning in South Africa💝, became synonymous with his legendary career. An opening-weekend win set the tone for a title-winning year⭕.

Jorge Lorenzo missed the opportunity to match Rossi’s record - he won on the last🌱 day of 2015 with Yamaha, but fell shor🐓t at the first race of 2016 with Ducati.

Rins, then, has an extra inc𒆙entive to start his journey with Honda in Portimao this weekend.

He delivered the perfect conclusion to Suzuki’s fin൩al race in Valencia last year, before the manufacturer exited MotoGP.

Now, with LCR Honda, he is v💝ying to restore the fallen Japanese manufactꦅurer back to the summit.
