A shaken VR46 team will begin its Austrian Grand Prix this Sunday. Shaken but also perhaps relieved and in any case fully assumes his exceptional decision to suspend the man who until then appeared to be his first driver: Romano Fenati. And who now has the face of a bad boy.
We will remember that the Italian, in his career, has already experienced relationship problems within this team. Victorian Guareschi (Team Manager), then Rossano Brazzi, chief engineer of Roman Fenati, left the team in 2014. But with Pablo Nieto, it was the collective that took precedence over the individual.
Before heading into the racing battle at the Red Bull Ring, Paul Grandson, team manager, commented: “ it's bad news when you wake up one day like that and you have one driver less in the box, it's not a very good day, but regardless we have rules at the inside the team and we decided that. It was the best thing for the team and that's it.
I think we have to think about the future and we will see what happens during these two days which will be important for us.
For the moment, Romano Fenati is suspended for one race. We have to think, we have to talk to the boss and we have to decide. But it's completely new; this new date from yesterday, we have to check everything and decide and we will know more in the days to come. This does not affect other driverss “.
Rumor has it that bagnaia is now on the front line to regain the ambition of a move up to Moto2 in 2017.
