If this is the case, today&#8217;s references will be important for the race.<\/p>\n<p><b>ALEIX ESPARGARO&#8217;<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>&#8220;Today I really felt good. Finishing FP1 close to the top 10 and fifth in FP2 is a great sign. The bike&#8217;s grip is very good and I was fast, confirming that we have made some steps forward from this point of view because the grip problems get worse in the wet. If the weekend should continue along these lines, we&#8217;ll be able to aim for important positions in the race.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>SCOTT REDDING<\/b><\/p>\n<p><i>&#8220;The conditions today certainly weren&#8217;t easy. As soon as it starts raining harder, you start aquaplaning straight away. In any case, we have the potential to do well in the wet. This morning I struggled to find the right feeling, but in FP2, with a few changes, I was able to be fast. Now we&#8217;ll work to improve further, because I am confident in our chances in these conditions.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>IN WET CONDITIONS BOTH ESPARGAR\u00d3 AND REDDING SHOWED THAT THEY CAN COMPETE FOR THE TOP TEN The first day of practice in Valencia was held in conditions of constant rain&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26609,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[20,28],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10224","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-motogp-en","category-race-report-motogp-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.3 -
