Obviously, the conditions are very different compared to when we last race here in late May, given the colder conditions, and it\u2019s harder to find the best feeling with the front-end of the bike, which is the area we\u2019re struggling the most. Regarding my time attack, I am happy because I was able to log a competitive lap-time: we still need to work on our pace, as the race is going to be a long one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>12<\/b><b><sup>th<\/sup><\/b><b> &#8211; ALBERT ARENAS #75 (1&#8217;43.416)<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday we tried to work with both tyre options, soft and hard, but the feeling wasn\u2019t great in the time attack. Still, we gathered some important information about our race pace and we\u2019ll try to make the most of it in order to improve the feeling, especially with regards to the grip: we\u2019ll still missing something in the traction side of things. Tomorrow will be qualifying time, so our focus will be on the single-lap performance.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is a much different Barcelona compared to the late-May one, with much colder temperatures and a feeling to find again.
