Bastianini is also competitive
Fourth and eighth place at the end of Friday testing GP of the Americas for the official Ducati riders Francesco Bagnaia and Enea Bastianini who thus gained direct access to Q2. Both have great ambitions, but there is no shortage of opponents, below are their statements.
“It was a positive day, I'm happy, maybe one of my best Fridays in a while – the analysis of Francesco Bagnaia – I managed to find a good feeling and we kept improving. We decided to follow a different strategy than the others, turning more with the medium tyre. It seems like a good option, even if the soft seems manageable, but we'll see it better in the next sessions and then we'll make a final decision on which one to use in the race. We definitely need to have a good qualifying and try to stay ahead in the sprint straight away“.
“I'm quite happy with this day, especially the race pace which saw us among the three fastest – he has declared Enea Bastianini – The time attack needs to be improved and I feel like it's the point where I struggle the most. It must also be said that in the last outing I suffered from the presence of a rider ahead of me and there was a lot of traffic on the track. I hope to go faster tomorrow and starting from the front will be very important. We continue to work and give our best, improving step by step“.
