Productive day in Jerez for Pol Espargaro as Marquez ends early
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
The first in-season #test of 2021 was a positive experience for #polespargaro, providing a clear direction to follow in the upcoming races.
Monday after the Gran Premio Red Bull de España offered the #motogp class their first in-season testing day of 2021. There was a brief disruption early in the day as the red flag was brought out after just an hour of running due to falls on circuit.
Pol Espargaro had a busy day around the 4.4 kilometres of the Circuito de #jerez – Angel Nieto, completing 89 laps with a best time of 1’37.506. Just around midday, Espargaro suffered a fall at Turn 1 but was unharmed and quickly returned to the garage. In the closing hour of the day Espargaro suffered a second fall, avoiding any injury. Aside from the falls, Espargaro leaves the one-day #test with a very positive feeling after a busy and full day of riding.
The day in #jerez was short for #marcmarquez, completing seven laps over two runs before calling an end to his #test. After a physically demanding weekend, Marquez and the #repsolhondateam elected to focus on his continued recovery and allow the maximum amount of time to prepare for the French GP.
The #repsolhondateam will now focus their attentions on round five, the French Grand Prix at Le Mans where Alex Marquez took his debut podium with the #repsolhondateam in 2020.
Pol Espargaro 6th 1'37.506
“We did 89 laps today; it has been a very busy and productive day for us. We have worked on many things, electronics, aero, ergonomics – they seem simple or small topics but when you’re still new to a bike they can make a big difference together. We have performed well today, I was close to Taka who has been the strongest Honda this weekend so I am happy. No matter what, we have learned a lot today and it has been very good for me to have a day like today where we can ride and try things without the pressure of a race weekend. Now we look to Le Mans.”
Marc Marquez 16th 1'38.303
“Today we didn’t really #test, just one run because on the second run my body was already locking up. My neck and my right shoulder were stiff, it’s similar to after Portimao but I was not as locked up as I was after Portugal. The crash I had on Saturday didn’t help with my physical condition. I thought that maybe today when my body had warmed up it would be better, and I could try but straight away I could tell I wasn’t at a good level for riding. We spoke as a team and decided to stop the #test, we need to understand that we’re improving step by step and the next target is Le Mans where we will try to improve again.”
