ALONSO LÓPEZ # 21: 8th
“I am delighted with how this weekend went! I felt good already in this morning’s warm up when we rode well even though the tire was used. In the race I made a good start while maintaining the position reached. Then it was not easy to gain positions especially after a mistake that prevented me from staying ahead. In the end we are learning a lot because we are driving with fast riders. We go home with a super result and with the desire to get back on track soon!”.
FERMÍN ALDEGUER # 54: 15th
“Difficult race I must say. In a complicated weekend it was certainly the best result we could have achieved, but we have to keep fighting and growing. I thank the team for their hard work and for having suffered with me during this hard weekend. In Germany we will try to improve our weaknesses and get back to having fun!”.
