Franco Morbidelli had one of the best days of the MotoGP season so far, setting the seventh fastest time in the GP of the Americas practice session. It was a position achieved with his last lap, which already puts him in the second qualifying phase in Austin and is proof of the good adaptation he has to the Ducati.
The pilot confirmed that he was happy with Friday: “It was a positive day. We can be in the first places all day and especially in the time attack; it was really positive. We made the improvements we hoped to make from Portimão, and I’m happy, the team deserves this. We keep working and keep trying to improve‘.
After the injury that kept him away from all the pre-season tests, Morbidelli explained that the process of adapting to the team and the bike takes time in the Grand Prix races:
– I basically have no experience on the bike and no kilometers on the bike, because if you think that on a race day you do 20 laps, 25 laps maximum, while on a test day you do 80, 90, 100. And I missed five of those days where you do 100 laps. And of course 100 laps would have helped me get used to the new bike. Instead I had to use the 20-lap days to get used to the new bike, plus the race days. So leave some stuff on the way. But we took it easy – not easy, but we took it the right way with the team.
And the Italian assured that signs of progress are visible, emphasizing the determination to exploit the potential of the Desmosedici GP24: “We are making strides, and that is what we hoped to do and hope to do and continue to do until we reach the full potential of this bike, which is fighting for the top stops consistently.‘.
