In the whirlwind of events that intoxicated an extraordinary Austrian Grand Prix, there was the total redemption of a driver who had been condemned for months. This is Romano Fenati who, on the Red Bull Ring, got rid of the last residue of sulfur which marked his leather. He won the Austrian Moto3 Grand Prix in fine style at the end of a race that he should have started from pole position. But a sanction deprived him of it. An event that didn't even bother him. While at other times...
The world of Grands Prix could not stop there with Roman Fenati. And thus leave the memory of a pilot capable of taking the brakes of his opponent's motorcycle in the middle of a race. It was necessary to show that the community was also getting back on the right path. And last weekend in Austria, Roman Fenati got back on the right trajectory.
A redemption on a circuit where his decline had begun. It was 2016 and he had been kicked out of the Sky VR46 team. Then there was the Misano episode with the no less particular Stefano manzi. End of the story ? No. Cecchini went to get him to put him back in his Snipers team. At 23 years old, Roman Fenati returns to a success that had left him since the Japanese Grand Prix on October 15, 2017.
« We wanted to win so badly and we did it here, on a track where I had never been on the podium before. And what's more with pole position. It was great " commented " Fenny5 ". " We worked well in the box. I dedicate this result to my family, my friends, the team and everyone who has been with me over these two difficult years. On Sunday we had no right to make a mistake, I drove with my heart " found fenati.
He continues, explaining his disappointing start to the season: “ after racing in Moto2, I no longer remembered the chaos of Moto3. In the first races it was difficult for me to jump in the first two corners, but now I have improved ". He adds : " I don't consider my team as just a team. But like a family. They have been close to me, especially in recent months, because that is important for a pilot. A big thank you to them ».
« I thought about ending everything » admits Romano. “ Last year I didn't want to run anymore and even this season I didn't always want to. A little for the lack of results, a little for my mood. The team gave me a helping hand, I have to thank them.” And he ends: “everyone in life makes mistakes and good things, the important thing is to move forward ».
