GILAMOTOR.com. – Nicolas Terol dari tim Mapfre Aspar berhasil menjadi yang terbaik di seri kedua Moto2 di sirkuit Austin, Minggu 21 April 2013 atau Senin 22 April 2013 dini hari waktu Indonesia.
Start dari posisi ketiga, Terol berhasil memanfaatkan kesalahan Scott Redding di tikungan pertama saat balapan baru saja memasuki 4 putaran. Tikungan yang memang dikenal triki itu membuat Redding melebar keluar. Terol berada di racing line yang tepat langsung memanfaatkan kesalahan Redding. Terol pun semakin menjauh.
Apes bagi Redding, lepas kehilangan posisi terdepan dia terus terpuruk ke posisi lima setelah dilewati oleh Rabat, Kallio dan Aegerter di beberapa lap kemudian.
Penampilan memukau ditunjukkan oleh Mika Kallio. Start dari posisi Sembilan, Kalio berhasil melesat ke barisan depan. Bertarung sengit dengan Rabat dan sempat beberapa kali saling over taking. Sayang, di tikungan terakhir Kalio sliding sehingga sedikit melebar. Rabat yang memang tepat di belakang Kalio langsung mengambil alih posisi kedua. Kalio hanya tertinggal 0.050 detik di belakang Rabat.
Di sisi lain, duo pembalap Indonesia belum bisa tampil baik. Rafid Topan Sucipto dari tim QMMF Racing Team tak bisa melanjutkan balapan. Sementara Doni Tata Pradita finish di posisi 25 dari 26 pembalap yang finish
