The Italian Tony Arbolino (Kalex) arrives at the Grand Prix of the Americas which will take place this weekend at the American circuit of COTA (Circuit Of The Americas), in the city of Austin, with the aim of consolidating his leadership in the Moto2 categorywhile the Spaniard Daniel Holgado (KTM) and the Brazilian Diogo Moreira (KTM) will have to defend their positions in one of the most open Moto3 categories in recent seasons.
Arbolino, winner of Termas de Río Hondo, has an eight-point advantage over his immediate rival, Arón Canet (Kalex). and more, twelve points, against his compatriot Pedro Acosta (Kalex), two of the main exponents of the category and candidates for the world title vacated last season also by the Spanish Augusto Fernández.
They are the main references, although they are not the only onesin a Moto2 category that has seemed more open for title candidates in recent years.
Both British Jake Dixon (Kalex), and Czech Filip Salac (Kalex), South African Darry Binder (Kalex) or Spanish Alonso López (SpeedUp), Manuel González (Kalex), Albert Arenas (Kalex), Sergio García (Kalex) or Fermín Aldeguer (SpeedUp), seem to be in a position to fight for the podium in the first stages of the current season.
They also include the Thai Somkiat Chantra and the British Sam Lowes, classics of the category that, although they have shown that they have a level at the top, for one reason or another have still not achieved it, but they cannot be excluded from the fight for victory in every grand prix .
Something similar is happening in the Moto3 category, where Spaniard Daniel Holgado and Brazilian Diogo Moreira dominate.but the list of contenders for the title is long, very long, with many Spanish proper names among them all.
To Daniel Holgado we must add David Muñoz (KTM), Xavier Artigas (CFMoto)the young José Antonio Rueda (KTM), who starred in a great race in Argentina, Jaume Masiá (Honda), David Salvador (KTM), or David Alonso (GasGas), although with dual nationality he disputes the championship in motorcycling world Licensed from Colombia.
In addition to them, we must always consider the Japanese Tatsuki Suzuki (Honda), Kaito Toba (KTM), Ryusei Yamanaka (GasgGas) and Ayumu Sasaki (Husqvarna), the Italians Stefano Nepa (KTM) and Andrea Migno (Honda), the Turkish Deniz Öncü (KTM) or the Australian Joel Kelso (CFMoto), who will still doubt in the United States and could be replaced again by the Spaniard David Almansa, who battled through the leading group until an accident kept him out of the points late in the Argentine race.
