After being kicked out of the Sky VR46 team in Austria, Roman Fenati remained on foot for the rest of the season.
However, whatever the reasons for this ouster, no one doubted the level of performance of the Italian driver and, after a aborted attempt on the part of Aki Ajo himself, he's finally in the team CBC Racing de Mirko Cecchinand (called Ongetta-Rivacold in 2016 but renamed in 2017 following the loss of its sponsor) that the fiery Italian achieved.
And we didn't have to wait very long to understand that the driver from Emilia-Romagna had lost none of his enthusiasm since, from the first tests in Jerez, the other famous #5 made the powder speak by competing for the best time with Fabio DiGiannantonio.
However, and even if Nicolo Bulega places him among his favorites for the world title 2017, the teammate of Jules Danilo do not boast, as pointed out Moto sprint: “Those were difficult months, without motorbikes and without the taste of adrenaline from the circuits. I overcame this abstinence thanks to my family, my closest friends, but also thanks to the many supporters who continually supported me with messages. During the test I immediately felt comfortable, both with the team and the bike. In the box and with the team, we breathe a very positive, family atmosphere, and from the first meeting with Mirko, there was a good understanding.
The difference between the two motorcycles? It is considerable; they are completely different and therefore require a change in riding style as well.
My goals? They are exclusively focused on the work to be done to try to improve myself. »
The words seem very wise and reasonable, very far from
the spirit of revenge attributed to him by Nicolo Bulega.
Will stocks still be as popular on the track?
Not sure… and that’s good!
