#QATARGP: FERMIN JUST MISSES OUT ON Q2 ON HIS RETURN

FERMÍN ALDEGUER – 11th

“We were just 38 thousandths of a second away from Q2… On the one hand, there’s a bit of disappointment, but on the other, we know that we’re back, that we’re feeling good, that we’ve worked the way we know how, and that the feeling with the bike, especially with my hand, is there. Q1 is never good news, but we definitely need every possible minute on track, so it will do us good.”

IKER LECUONA – 16th

“It had been a few years since I last raced here, yet we were already quite fast this morning. We worked well and made a good step forward in the afternoon, although riding at night felt a bit strange. I made a few too many mistakes; otherwise, we could have been closer to the top 10. But we know where we need to work to keep improving.”
