On one side there was Enea Bastianini\u2019s debut aboard the Desmosedici GP21 for <strong>Enea Bastianini<\/strong>, while on the other <strong>Fabio Di Giannantonio<\/strong> had his maiden experience aboard a MotoGP motorcycle (he is also riding a GP21 machine).<\/p>\n<p>It was an \u2018instant match\u2019 between Enea Bastianini and the new bike: \u201ctamer but more powerful\u201d as he described it. The rider #23 spent most of the testing time in the lead before finishing third quickest &#8211; with plenty of laps completed and great confidence with both the bike and the new team.<\/p>\n<p>For <strong>Fabio Di Giannantonio<\/strong> it was all about getting a first contact with the new reality and things surely went the right way. The Italian managed to improve his feeling lap by lap and that was shown by his personal quickest time \u2013 which came at the 48<sup>th<\/sup> lap, his last for the day.<\/p>\n<p>The second and last opportunity for 2021 to gather further experience will be tomorrow, with the wind that could play a bigger role at Jerez de la Frontera.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3<sup>rd<\/sup> &#8211; ENEA BASTIANINI #23 (1\u201937.402 \u2013 51 laps)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe first impressions are good. I\u2019m happy with the bike and with how the guys worked as a team. Let\u2019s say it is what I was expecting: an easier bike to ride, and I felt like it had been mine for a long time already. Lap-times came quick and despite the wind I was able to set competitive times throughout the whole day. There will be work to do and issues will arise, but at the moment I\u2019m happy. The bike is much tamer, and a lot quicker; last year\u2019s bike had great potential, but it was really difficult to ride.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>22<sup>nd<\/sup> &#8211; FABIO DI GIANNANTONIO #49 (1\u201939.628 \u2013 48 laps)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cThe best day of my life. The bike is simply fantastic as it has all the things I\u2019ve always looked for in a motorcycle: the way of braking, the rideability inside the corner, the mid-corner and corner exit feeling, the power\u2026 everything is there. We have plenty of work to do to bridge the gap to the leaders, but I\u2019m in awe right now. I need to understand tyres better and how to work with the electronics; there are many things I need to focus on, but the base is not a bad one.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first day of off-season testing ahead of the 2022 season has undoubtedly been a successful one for Team Gresini Racing MotoGP, as the Faenza-based squad is back in the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":30278,"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-18478","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 -
