LOPEZ IMMEDIATELY FAST AT SEPANG. FERRARI IN THE LEARNING PHASE
ALONSO LOPEZ #21
“Today I have to say that I felt comfortable straight away: this is one of the hottest circuits on the calendar, so it was crucial for me to get positive feelings as quickly as possible. Tomorrow it will be essential to start from the first two rows: we already have a good baseline package, especially over the first few laps. We can still work on grip, particularly at the rear. We are confident that we can sort everything out in tomorrow morning’s session: this is one of the circuits where we can fight for important positions, whatever the weather conditions may be!”
MATTEO FERRARI #23
“A positive first day, especially considering that I hadn’t ridden this bike for two years. It was tough: I had ridden on this track in Moto3 more than 10 years ago, so there were quite a few things I needed to get back on top of. Today we gathered a lot of information to work on tomorrow: we are getting to know each other step by step and we are ready to improve together every session.”
