Bastianini and Di Giannantonio both gunning for glory at fast and flowing brno

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Right after the Austrian Grand Prix, the Gresini #racing Team #moto3 heads to #brno this weekend for round eleven of the Championship, the Grand Prix of the Czech Republic. An #event in which both #eneabastianini and #fabiodigiannantonio will try to get another good result after the excellent performance displayed last Sunday at the Red Bull Ring.

On the third step of the podium in the last two Grands Prix, #eneabastianini arrives on a track that has always seen him extremely competitive: the 18-year-old rider from Rimini, second placed at #brno both in 2014 and last year, has been working very hard with the team in recent times on his Honda NSF250RW machine set-up and he will keep working to progress further, particularly with regard to braking.

Also #fabiodigiannantonio is optimistic ahead of the race on the fast and flowing Czech circuit: the 17-year-old from Rome, who has now 66 points in the standings thanks to the eighth place finish in #brno and fighting with Nicholas Bulega and Joan Mir for the Rookie of the Year trophy, is aiming to improve the result obtained in Austria.


ENEA BASTIANINI
“Brno is definitely one of my favorite tracks and the two podiums collected during the last two years prove it. In addition, we can use the data collected in the tests conducted here last July, although actually the track on that occasion was very slippery and if the conditions will improve over the weekend we will have to re-adapt the bike set-up. However, we can count on a good base that is allowing us to be fast, but as we could see in Austria we are still struggling a bit under braking. We need to work on this area if we want to be more competitive in the final stages of the race. However, I’m very happy with the work we are doing with the team and Honda is helping me a lot, so I hope we can have another good race”.

FABIO DI GIANNANTONIO
“In Austria we enjoyed a very satisfying weekend, working well on the bike: in the race I could be fast and I could get more without the physical problem on my left arm. We got a rally good feedback from the two days of testing carried out last July at #brno, so we arrive in the Czech Republic determined to repeat the good performance shown recently, convinced that we can collect another good result. I think that we’ll have fun!”.
FAUSTO GRESINI
“In Austria it was important to start the second half of the season in a good way and we did it: after Germany, we brought home another great team result with Enea fighting for the victory and again on the podium, and a determined Di Giannantonio who finished eighth despite some physical issues. On the paper #brno is a track where we can do very well: Enea has always been very competitive in the last two years and also Di Giannantonio proved to like the characteristics of this track during the test carried out last July. As for Fabio, we hope he can solve the physical problems on his left arm he had in Austria, so we can be 100% with both riders and try to get another good team result”.
