Almost a second. This is the ‘passive’ in terms of lap time collected by Maverick Vinales against his Aprilia boxing mate Aleix Espargarò. The former Yamaha rider in the race starting today at 16:00 Italian time will start from the seventh row from the 19th square of the starting grid, while the more experienced of the Espargarò brothers conquered the fifth chronometric performance and therefore the second row at three tenths. from pole position signed by Jorge Martin on Ducati.
Vinales explained the difficulties encountered in this opening weekend in Qatar on the Lusail track, which saw him winner a year ago in the first race of a 2021 that seemed to open up in the best way for Vinales, who, however, he saw relations with Yamaha collapse until the early separation and the arrival in Aprilia. “I don’t have to cryI have to work – declared as reported by the Spanish portal todocircuito – I didn’t have high expectations, I was hoping to be faster and to be a little further, but I have to continue working together with the team to find the right changes in terms of set-up to be faster. I encounter the biggest problems at the front, with new tires I have a good feeling, but then it fades quickly. In general, I have problems from all sides, but I think the main aspect to work on is the tires ”.
For the 1995 class, today’s one will be one ‘test’ race: “It is one thing to have a whole day and run 70 laps as in the winter tests, another thing is to try to maximize everything in 40 minutes of free practice. It will be a fun race because we start from the bottom and see if I can go up a bit. I will take it as a learning race, I knew I would pay for my inexperience on this track on the Aprilia “.
