It could have been a great Sunday for Aprilia in Le Mans. In a race that started on dry asphalt and was then interrupted by the rain, with a consequent bike change on pit lane, Aleix started well from the fifth row, moving up into the top 6. The Spanish rider’s pace gave him the potential to gain another spot and, along with it, important championship points. Unfortunately, a problem, currently being investigated by the technicians, shut down his RS-GP ten laps from the end.
Lorenzo was also headed for an important result, achieved in conditions where he proved to be particularly incisive throughout the weekend. When he had to stop, Savadori was managing twelfth place, but with a pace good enough to make up ground on his rivals. Yet another confirmation of the Italian rookie’s consistent growth.
