ALONSO LOPEZ #21<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m quite happy with this first day on track. I felt good and we made significant progress throughout both sessions. The main goal today was to regain positive sensations after so many weeks away, and get back to the level we were at before my injury. We\u2019re back, and that makes me feel more confident. Now we\u2019ll keep working to improve: tomorrow we can make another good step forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

SERGIO GARCIA #3<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis Friday didn\u2019t start in the best way. I have gastroenteritis, which meant I wasn\u2019t able to eat, so physically I wasn\u2019t in the best shape. However, the feeling on the bike was positive from the very beginning. I wasn\u2019t able to put together a perfect lap, but my best time was still enough to secure direct access to Q2, which was our goal for today. Now we\u2019ll also work on our race pace and on finding the same feeling we had in the morning during the afternoon session, despite the warmer temperatures.\u201d<\/p>\n
