Excellent is not an adjective you often encounter in Ducati press releases. However, it was this one that was chosen to qualify this first day of MotoGP private testing at the Red Bull Ring.
It must be said that with 4 motorcycles in the first 4 places in the afternoon, there is reason to rejoice for the men of Borgo Panigale.
Beware, however, of rear tire overheating problems noted by Jorge Lorenzo...
Tomorrow, for the last day, the Zeltweg circuit will be open from 8.30:12.00 a.m. to 13.00:18.00 p.m., then from XNUMX:XNUMX p.m. to XNUMX:XNUMX p.m. Live Timing is available
Andrea Iannone, 1' 24.347 (2nd): “It was a very positive day for us because the track is really nice and adapts well to the characteristics of our Desmosedici GP: in fact we went really fast and I immediately found good sensations. We worked a bit on the bike and also tested some new chassis parts, but overall we made very few changes as the feeling was still very positive. I also did a mini race simulation of 10 laps, and my pace was pretty good, very close to my best laps, so I'm happy with how the first day went. »
