The Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Team are buzzing to start Round 15 of the 2025 MotoGP World Championship. As the Monster Energy Grand Prix of Catalonia shares the title sponsor with the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Team and it's also Álex Rins' home race weekend, the crew and riders are all the more eager to put on a show.

Fabio Quartararo ranks 10th in the championship standings and aims to gain momentum in Montmeló this weekend. El Diablo has had his fair share of success at the Catalan GP, visiting the rostrum numerous times. He secured a win there in 2018 in the Moto2 class, followed it up with a second place in the premier class in 2019, and added MotoGP wins in 2020 and 2022.

Rins will be using the Catalan GP weekend to make further set-up changes. Born in Barcelona, Rins is a local hero and also no stranger to the Montmeló podium. He stood on the Catalan premier class rostrum in 2020 for a third-place finish, his best MotoGP finish at this track. He also secured two second places in Moto2 in 2015 and 2016, and a Moto3 second place in 2013. This weekend, he aims to score solid points again and move up from 19th in the overall rankings.

Work to create the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya began in 1989. Two years later, the track was opened and it soon became a crowd favourite after hosting its first MotoGP race in 1992. With an exciting 4.66km layout consisting of 14 corners (six left, eight right), the Catalan round is known to produce thrilling races.
