To Cal Crutchlow, the Phillip Island circuit in Australia is a place full of good memories, with a particular one, a victory in 2016 and a 2nd place in 2019, the last year that the MotoGP World Championship went there.
After encountering some difficulties in exceptionally harsh conditions in Thailand, the British test rider is eager to return to the smooth southern track and will therefore not only look to improve his current results, but also to further develop his Yamaha YZR-M1 of the WithU Yamaha RNF team during the 18th round of this 2022 season.
To Cal Crutchlow, who starts his fourth of his six rounds of 2022 this weekend, replacingAndrea Dovizioso retired, more than to increase his capital by 3 points in the general classification, the objective will therefore be rather to improve his sensations behind the handlebars of Iwata's machine while continuing to provide his comments as a test rider . One does not prevent the other and does not protect us from a surprise on a route that he adores...
Cal Crutchlow : " I can't wait to return to Phillip Island. The last time we drove there was in 2019 and I think everyone is looking forward to getting back to this circuit. We had a disappointing last race in Buriram with the poor race conditions. Hopefully the weather in Australia is a little better for this weekend and we can have a good result. The team works well and we work closely with Yamaha. I obviously have a busy schedule at the moment, but I'm looking forward to racing this weekend. »
