BARCELONA AND MISANO WRAP UP EUROPEAN MOTOGP SEASON
Two back-to-back rounds that foresee plenty of heat, crowd, excitement, and home. Two back-to-back events that, excluding the season finale at Valencia, will wrap up the long European season. Montmeló first, Misano later, will be the home GPs for Alex Marquez and Fabio Di Giannantonio respectively, and the latter obviously for Team Gresini MotoGP.
Expectations are high for both riders: Alex is coming from really good results that he’s looking forward to confirming, while Diggia wants to achieve that result that is still missing from this season – which is still a positive one. The opportunities will arrive on two favourable tracks for the two standard bearers of Gresini Racing, who will be further motivated by the home crowd.
#73 – ALEX MARQUEZ
“Two important races before the world tour begins… One will be my home race, the other the home round for my team. We’re having some good momentum and we need to continue this way. Montmeló is a track I like a lot and it’s the same for Misano. We only need to stay focused, as we’re physically and mentally ready for these two back-to-back races.”
#49 – FABIO DI GIANNANTONIO
“Last year we were really quick in Barcelona and it’s likely to be the track where we can score our best result. The feeling with the bike continues to grow so I’m sure we can do really well. Regarding Misano what can I say… my home race, a lot of expectation, friends, crowd and a surprise that I can’t wait to reveal!”
