#23 ENEA BASTIANINI – 15º- 1´37.675
“It’s been a difficult day. With the new tyre I feel much better than the used something different to other circuits, I must understand the reason. I have a lot of movement on the bike, and I can’t turn the bike well. Tomorrow, we will analyse the data of other Ducati riders who have made good times to confront them with mine. I can’t be entirely satisfied with my result.”
#10 LUCA MARINI (SKY VR46 AVINTIA TEAM) – 18º – 1´37.925
“A complicated qualifying, compared to the free practices there was more wind and I have struggled a bit. I am not satisfied with the result: I set my best time with an used rear tire of three laps and a front one of seven, not the most optimal conditions. A shame, there was a lot of traffic on the track and maybe I was more penalized than others. The feeling with the bike is quite ok and we can make a step forward in turning. We have already decided the tires for the race, and we are happy about our choice. Tomorrow it will be important to have a great start and push at 100% in the first laps”.
