This Monday or at the latest the next day, a verdict is expected from the side of the FIM Court of Appeal. The court will rule on a complaint filed against Ducati by four manufacturers and more particularly Aprilia. Although the boss of the reds Gigi Dall'Igna supports more on Honda's side in its suspicion of the leader. In question, the deflector placed on the swinging arm in front of the rear tire of the GP19, but not only that. It is also a questioning of the general functioning of technical control in MotoGP…
The desire that emerges from the various comments is clear: at a time when, in MotoGP, performance must be sought in the details, rigorous control is required. Aprilia continues to insist on this point and, until then, it was its new sporting director Massimo rivola which hammered home the argument. And for good reason: the man comes from Formula 1 where this kind of crisis is almost daily... But this time, it's the technical director of the RS-GP, Roman Albesian who takes over...
When we talk about technique in MotoGP, we mean Danny Aldridge, the only one to decide on the matter. And it is precisely this solitude that would pose a problem… “ The fact is that the current regulations only set general principles, so to speak, and then transfer the decision to one person, the technical director, Danny Aldridge " remember Albesian. " I think we should strengthen the structure, help this person, called to decide on the most disparate subjects and who may not be perfectly competent on all questions. ».
Aprilia therefore does not want to accuse. He wants to help… Because the situation would be this: “ My wish is that things be clarified. Let's be clear about what can and cannot be done to get out of this situation where the one who forces the hand manages to have more advantages. It's not good ". Ducati will appreciate…
On what may happen, Albesian ends on InSella.it : " I would be surprised if it was said that a wing could be placed where previously we were told it could not be. Clearly, under certain conditions this solution guarantees an advantage in terms of downforce and if it is established that it can be used, it should be used. And we will adapt ».
