MotorLand Aragon hosts this weekend round 14 of the 2016 Moto3 World Championship: after having narrowly missed out on victory with Enea Bastianini and collecting another positive Top Ten finish with Fabio Di Giannantonio at Misano, the Gresini Racing Team Moto3 arrives in Spain confident to get another good result.<\/p>\n
Bastianini, in particular, is going through a period of great form and he\u2019s keen to attack Championship leader Brad Binder and try to get a win, which he missed out at Misano for just a few tenths under the checkered flag. The 18-year-old rider from Rimini, now second in the overall standings, enjoyed a great race at Aragon in 2015, setting the pole position with the new track record and fighting in the leading group until the final corners, when a contact with Binder led him to crash.<\/p>\n
Aragon promises to be a favorable track also for Fabio Di Giannantonio: the 17-year-old rookie from Rome got the last of his three victories last year in the MotoGP Rookies Cup on the Spanish track. Always in the Top Ten in the last eight races, \u201cDiggia\u201d will try to bring home other important points in the fight for the \u201cRookie of the Year\u201d trophy, in which he is opposed to Nicol\u00f2 Bulega and Joan Mir.<\/p>\n
ENEA BASTIANINI<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cAragon is a track I\u2019ve always liked a lot and last year we have been very competitive: after starting from pole position, I was fighting for the win on the final lap, when unfortunately I made a mistake touching Binder and crashing. This year we will try to be fast right from the start of the weekend, as it\u2019s happening lately, in order to work well and get prepared for the race. Binder has a great advantage in the standings, but we still try to attack and we won\u2019t give up until the math keeps us in the game!\u201d.<\/p>\n FABIO DI GIANNANTONIO<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cHonestly I was expecting to get a better result at Misano, although all in all we again hit the target to enter the top ten. Aragon is a track that I quite like and I know very well, having raced there for two seasons in the MotoGP Rookies Cup. Therefore we head to Spain ready to have fun and to do our best to get a good result!\u201d.<\/p>\n FAUSTO GRESINI<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cBastianini produced a strong performance at Misano and he\u2019s going through a great moment: despite an uphill start of the season, the recent results allowed him to climb to second in the Championship, so we head to Spain confident that we can do well and, why not, try to get a win! Although he struggled more than expected at Misano, \u2018Diggia\u2019 is on a steep learning curve, so we are optimistic also about him\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" MotorLand Aragon hosts this weekend round 14 of the 2016 Moto3 World Championship: after having narrowly missed out on victory with Enea Bastianini and collecting another positive Top Ten finish…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":22826,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,26],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2864","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-moto3-en","category-race-report-moto3-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
