Thatโs a wrap on our MotoAmerica weekend at COTA ๐บ๐ธ๐
The final race results might not tell the full story, but thereโs plenty to be proud of from an incredibly positive weekend for Simon Reid and the entire team.
A brand-new bike, a new circuit, 40ยฐC+ conditions and Simonโs first-ever race weekend on Dunlop tyres meant there was plenty to learn, but the progress came quickly.
The highlight came in qualifying, with Simon putting it P1 in Superbike Cup and ahead of several Superbikes, an incredible result on just his second day riding on Dunlops and his first visit to COTA.
While we werenโt able to convert that pace into the race results we wanted, the weekend showed exactly what this project is capable of and gave us plenty to build on.
A massive thank you to alpha Racing, BMW Motorrad USA and Scheibe Racing for helping make this opportunity possible, and to everyone who supported Simon and Carl Cox Motorsport throughout the weekend.

Qualified P1 in the Superbike Cup today! ๐
Showed weโve got good pace all weekend, especially our first weekend in MotoAmerica on Dunlops.
Unfortunately, the race ended early. I got a great drive onto the back straight, picked up a huge slipstream and arrived at the braking zone with a lot more speed than Iโd had all weekend. Sucked in & got caught out and couldnโt get it stopped, especially with the extra fuel load.
I donโt think we have a straight this length anywhere in the UK!
Frustrating one, but thatโs racing. Take the positives from pole, reset and go again tomorrow! โ๐
Day 1 at COTA โ
Smooth day, new bike, new team.

Simon talks through the differences, what heโs feeling from the bike and why getting this track time under his belt is so valuable ahead of COTA (Circuit of the Americas).
Itโs all part of getting Simon and the alpha Racing-prepared BMW dialled in before race weekend. ๐บ๐ธ
