Martin calm after 6th place
Jorge Martin he doesn’t make any dramas after the sixth place in the Montmeló Trials. The Spaniard knows he has an excellent bike at his disposal and the potential to extend his lead in the standings after the double success at Le Mans, and is looking forward to tomorrow with confidence.
On his Ducati GP24 the championship leader has tried many new features which he says can limit the difficulties he has always encountered in terms of feeling on this track, where he has never won in his career.
Martin’s words
“It was a very good day for me and the race pace is fantastic. We tried different solutions, some great, on this track that we normally suffer from“, this is his comment to Sky Sports MotoGP. “I feel this Ducati has a lot of stability when braking. I don’t feel that it runs better than the GP23. However, when braking it is very stable“.
Finally, a joke about Aleix Espargaro, the man of the weekend. The Spaniard, after announcing his retirement, in fact achieved the best time and the track record in the Tests: “If someone had to beat me it had better be Aleix. I’m happy for him, It’s incredible that he retreats at this speed. Congratulations to him“.
