FREE PRACTICES: NAVARRO STOPPED BY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. ALDEGUER AT COTA FOR THE FIRST TIME

Moto2 is finally back on the circuit of the Americas (COTA) in Austin, Texas where free practices has just been held on Friday.

Tough start for Jorge Navarro and his squad who encountered electrical problems in both free practice sessions. The number nine made very few laps at the beginning of FP1 and FP2 without being able to complete both sessions. He closed the first day with the twenty-fifth position, postponing all the pre-qualifying work in the last free practice tomorrow morning.

The young Aldeguer started his first day well on the circuit of the Americas showing a good feeling in the wet in the morning practice, while on the dry track some more difficulties were encountered. P24 at the end of the first day for team 54 with a time of 2’11.983 to +2.103 from the first.

JORGE NAVARRO # 9: 25th in 2’12.085

“A complicated first day because we had some technical problems that didn’t allow us to do more than two laps per session. Anyway, tomorrow is another day and we have to stay positive”.

 FERMÍN ALDEGUER # 54: 24th in 2’11.983

“Austin is a fairly complicated track that we have never ridden before. This morning we had a great feeling in the wet, but then in the afternoon, when we ran on a dry track, the feeling with the bike changed. We still have a lot to learn on this circuit of course, but we are quite happy with this first day”.
