BOTH RIDERS IN THE POINTS AT SILVERSTONE
Race – #BritishGP It was a positive Sunday for Jeremy Alcoba, who from 19th place on the grid was able to put together a great comeback: his race pace today allowed him to get all the way up to 11th, for five more points in the championship and some fresh confidence in his abilities as well as in the team.
It was a complicated journey, on the other hand, for Filip Salač who after a good start and a first fast lap, he struggled with the rear-end grip. This made things difficult for the Czech rider, who was 13th at the finish line; with the three points scored today, he managed to retain sixth place in the championship standings.
11th – JEREMY ALCOBA #52
“I woke up really motivated today, with great decide to do well and finish closer to the front. The confidence in my abilities gave me that extra change to lap even faster: I’m happy as we had a good pace, and if we started closer to the front of the grid we may have battle for the top five. The feeling with the front-end of the bike was really good, but we still have to work a bit at the rear-end. I’m happy: I finished the race leading my group and that gives me great confidence for the next race, too!”
13th – FILIP SALAČ #12
“It was a challenging day: I managed to get a good start and have a first quick lap, but then I lacked grip at the rear-end and I struggled to push on corner exit and under braking. We need to work on it ahead of Austria; the good thing is that I have a good feeling with the front-end, which will be crucial at the next venue.”
