Tito Rabat looking for a win on home ground

Moto2 World Championship leader, Tito Rabat, heads to Barcelona determined to continue the run of form that has seen him win three of the six races so far this season.

At the Montmeló circuit this weekend the 25-year-old Spaniard will be racing in front of his home crowd for the second time this season, but the Marc VDS rider remains unfazed by the added pressures a home race normally brings.

Rabat was second in last year’s Grand Prix of Catalunya but after the win last time out in Mugello, his third of the season, and a positive post race test at the Italian circuit, the Barcelona resident heads home this time with his sights set firmly on the top step of the podium.

Tito Rabat:
“This is my home race and I want to win it. My time since the Mugello race has been spent preparing for this weekend, to ensure I arrive in Barcelona completely prepared and at the top of my game. People always ask if a home race adds more pressure, but more pressure than I already put on myself for every race it’s not possible to have. Home race or not, we’ll approach this weekend in the same way we approach every weekend.”
