THE TRENTINO GRESINI TEAM FINALLY IN ACTION
The first test and first good results for Matteo Ferrari and Lorenzo Savadori, both busy this weekend in a three-day test at Jerez de la Frontera.
The riders of the Trentino Gresini MotoE Team had a few sessions available with a dry track (practically only on Saturday morning), but it was still an important test in which it was essential to get kilometers under the belt on a bike that is decidedly different from those which they were accustomed to.
Matteo Ferrari finished with the 5th best time of the test (1’51.648s), while Lorenzo Savadori, who practically did not ride on a dry track, took the opportunity to work with the Michelin in the wet, still finding a good 1’52.689 on day1 (half dry).
The next test will again be at Jerez de la Frontera after the winter break (12-14 March).
MATTEO FERRARI
“I didn´t spend much time on the track, practically only the Saturday morning session on the real dry track that counts. I immediately had a good feeling with the bike and considering that the others had spent more time on Friday, my fifth session time gives me hope. The bike takes a lot of adapting to, you have to slide a lot and avoid important braking, as the bike is very heavy. I have to say that I like the tires and the bike, both on dry and wet roads “.
LORENZO SAVADORI
“I have to admit that I haven´t had the chance to spend much time on the bike. However, the test I can say was definitely positive, it was important for me to understand what kind of motion the bike has, and how it should be guided. In the end I managed to spend more time today in the rain yesterday and Friday, and it was the first time I had tried the Michelin tires in these conditions. Surely, it is an important and stimulating adventure and I cannot wait to get back on the saddle”.
