BARCELONA, AT THE PEAK OF THE CLIMB 🥵🇪🇸

montmelo

 

Already on Friday we knew that it would be a difficult weekend and all uphill. Unlike our team, in fact, all the other drivers had just completed two full days of Official Test here in Montmelò, and we were therefore aware of the great gap that we had to close in such a short time. However, our tiburon certainly didn't let himself get discouraged: he rolled up his sleeves and even managed to win the direct passage to Q2!

🚦Starting from the 14th box on the grid, Tony once again showed his fierce bite from the start to the first part of the race, winning a place in the top 10 right away! However, over the course of the race, the Shark then lost ground. He slipped to 11th position and managed to keep the lead until he was overtaken by one of his rivals who made him go wide, thus forcing him to move back a few positions.

The race in Barcelona thus ends with a thirteenth place and so more important points!

🎙Tony: "I'm always more aggressive in the early laps to gain some positions and I think that's my strong point! In Moto2 it's super hard to do though: if you don't have enough power, you soon find yourself behind! However, I understood a lot about the bike in the last couple of laps and it seems that in general we have figured out a few more things this weekend. We need to change our overall feeling and see what we can do over the next few days. With two laps to go I was leading my group, but then a rider passed me and the strong wind hit my right side and pushed me right out into the green zone! From there I couldn't brake as hard as before.... But now we look ahead, we are already thinking about the next race and the next steps to take: we will work hard in the next days to be better prepared for Sachsenring".

Stefan Keckeisen:

"Tony started very well in today's race and was very good in the battle, however then he lost some ground. After an overtake towards the end of the race, he lost some positions, but his result was satisfying for us!!! Now we look forward to Sachsenring. For our home GP, we must try to fight for a better starting position in qualifying. The goal is clearly to take another step forward!!!"
