ALDEGUER FIFTH AND LÓPEZ SIXTH IN THE FIRST DAY OF THE DUTCH GRAND PRIX

The first day of the Dutch Grand Prix, scheduled for this weekend at the legendary TT Assen circuit, saw the two MB Conveyors SpeedUp riders conclude the two free practice sessions with the fifth and sixth time.

The Dutch weather conditioned the first session in which Aldeguer and López challenged the TT Assen circuit in the rain, both demonstrating an excellent feeling with their Boscoscuro bikes. Fermín concluded FP1 with an excellent second time in 1’46.962 to +0.085 from the first, remaining in the top positions for the entire duration of the session. Alonso gradually adapted to the wet track, progressing lap after lap to his best time of 1’47.621 (+0.744), finishing the FP1 in p9.

In the afternoon the two teams faced the second free practice session on a dry track, adapting immediately to the new conditions. The number 54 finished the practice in p5 with a time of 1’37.840 to +0.447 from the first, and behind him his teammate who with a time of 1’37.942 secured the sixth position.

FERMÍN ALDEGUER #54: 5^th in 1’37.840

“Very positive first day! I felt good at all times on the bike; this morning we got a good result in the wet, not only a good fastest lap but also the pace and I think it is very important in view of Sunday’s race if it is in the rain. In the afternoon we lapped on the dry without any reference and I was really happy ending the day in p5 without having fitted the new tire. And so, happy with today’s work and I just can’t wait for tomorrow!”.

ALONSO LÓPEZ #21: 6th in 1’37.942

“I’m happy with this day both in the dry and in the wet conditions because I think we ran a fairly complete Friday; It is true that we need to refine a couple of points, but I believe that if we find a way to fix them we can improve a lot. Let’s see what the weather will be tomorrow, for now the desire to ride in this fantastic circuit is very strong. Thanks to the team for the work done and see you tomorrow!”.
