BETA TOOLS SPEEDUP

FP1/FP2 OF THE INDONESIAN GP: P7 AND P17 FOR THE BETA TOOLS SPEEDUP

Introduced to the calendar only last year, the Mandalika Circuit hosted the fifteenth round of the 2023 season today, thus kicking off the Indonesian Grand Prix.

The Beta Tools SpeedUp riders faced the first two free practice sessions placing in P7 (Aldeguer) and P17 (López) of the provisional combined standing.

Excellent result for the number 54 who showed great pace and a lot of competitiveness during the morning’s FP1. With the red flag waved a few laps from the start, Fermín took advantage of the pit stop to change tires and refine some details of the Boscoscuro before returning to the track. In fact, after the second run, the young rider from Murcia defended himself very well on the track, finishing the first session in P8 with a time of 1’35.447. He also gave his best in the second free practice session finishing the day in 1’34.994, which corresponds to the seventh fastest time in the combined classification.

On the other side of the box, however, Alonso completed a tough day due to the crashes he suffered in both sessions. In fact, rider number 21 closed the first session with the nineteenth time in 1’36.521 and FP2 in P17, despite a lowering of the time previously set. For López, the Indonesian Friday ended with the seventeenth time in the provisional standing in 1’35.445.

 

ALDEGUER #54: 7th in 1’34.994

“I’m happy with today’s result because I had a good pace and the sensations with the Boscoscuro were excellent. We need to improve on the fastest lap but for tomorrow we will face the day with the same perspective as today”.

LÓPEZ #21: 17th in 1’35.445

“The first day turned out to be quite tough. This is a circuit where we can be fast and competitive but we still need some details to improve to reach our goal. Tomorrow we will face the day with positivity because we are confident in the results we can achieve.”

re but on the other, I’m very disappointed because I could have finished a better race”.
