Race 8, Mugello

David Salom and Jordi Torres to ride for Aspar Moto2 team this weekend as Julian Simon still not fit and Xavi Fores dropped

Racing at Mugello is an emotion that churns my stomach for the whole week before! It is a fascinating and nice circuit to ride, which requires technique but also determination and aggressiveness. We will have to study well the set-up also adjusting to the new surface. In The Netherlands we showed a good ability to adapt to track conditions and we will do the same here in Italy. We must be able to be competitive from the start and be among the leaders. I expect a good weekend, both from the sport point of view and the show! There will be plenty of fans and this will be further motivation to play our cards at their best!

Kev Coghlan schijnt aan de kant gezet te zijn bij het team dat door Alex Debón wordt gerund.. t kwam er op neer dat een 'paydriver' (nog onbekend wie) zich daar aangeboden heeft..
Coghlan is wel onderweg naar Italië in de hoop met andere teams in gesprek te komen..

de 'Paydriver' die Kev Coghlan gaat vervangen in het team van Debon schijnt Tommasso Lorenzetti te heten...

For now, the weekend started well, we found a nice set-up since the morning and we have gradually improved our performance. Unfortunately, a little electronic trouble at the beginning of the second session has stolen about ten minutes, but once I entered the track I have been able to push hard and be competitive. In the second round we have also tried to make some changes that have yielded good results and we tested used tyres to begin to assess our pace, we will further investigate that aspect tomorrow. Of course the other riders are here to do well so we will not sit on our laurels and have to work hard to improve, we will deeply analyze data to find those two or three changes to be tested tomorrow to try to be even faster.
