LOPEZ CLOSES FRIDAY IN SECOND PLACE. GARCIA ALSO ADVANCES DIRECTLY TO Q2
ALONSO LOPEZ #21
“I’m very happy with this first day; we improved every time we went out on track. We’re working really well together, especially on braking, which is currently our strong point but at the same time my weak point. Therefore, tomorrow morning’s FP2 session will be crucial, because I feel very good ahead of qualifying, but we need to put all the pieces together to build a solid race pace.”
SERGIO GARCIA #3
“I arrived in Jerez in good physical condition; over the past few weeks at home I’ve worked a lot with my physiotherapist, and today on the bike I felt good. I’m quite satisfied—this afternoon we struggled a bit, but we secured direct access to Q2, which was today’s goal. Now we’ll keep working to improve further ahead of tomorrow, especially in terms of race pace. We’re coming from a difficult start to the season, but we still have room for improvement, and I’m sure we’ll show it tomorrow.”
