This weekend's event marks MotoGP's race debut at the Circuit of the Americas.

The Repsol Honda, LCR Honda and Factory Yamaha Teams took part in a private test at the circuit in March, when rookie Marc Marquez led all three days.

Two American wild-cards are joining the grid this weekend: Blake Young with Attack Performance and Mike Barnes for GP Tech Suzuki. Both have also tested at the track.

All riders lapped quicker in FP2.
