BETA TOOLS SPEEDUP

P2 AND P12 FOR BETA TOOLS SPEEDUP ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE MALAYSIAN GP

At the Sepang International Circuit, the Beta Tools SpeedUp took to the track to face the eighteenth round of the 2023 season, the penultimate overseas stage.

After the first day of free practice, Fermín Aldeguer and Alonso López placed themselves in P2 and P12 respectively in the combined standings.

An excellent start for the number 54 who once again demonstrated that he is in great shape. Excellent result for Fermín at the end of FP1 in which he continued to lower his time until crushing on the last lap of the session his best result in 2’06.183, thus taking first place in the standings. Although there was no lowering of the time in the afternoon, Aldeguer held on to his position in the top3, concluding the first Malaysian day in P2.

On the other hand, Alonso ended FP1 in fourteenth position with a time of 2’07.485, after a yellow flag unfortunately canceled his best lap. In the second free practice, the number 21 managed to lower his morning time despite a defective tyre, closing the session in P12 of the combined standings with 2’06.822.

ALDEGUER #54: 2nd in 2’06.183

“I’m happy with how the first day went here in Malaysia. This morning I did an excellent last lap while this afternoon I made a mistake towards the end of the session in the third sector. But that’s okay, because from the mistakes we understand what the limits are and we can’t do anything but work on them to do well tomorrow in qualifying. Now it is important to continue on this path”.

LÓPEZ #21: 12th

“Today we had a very high and competitive pace. With the tire change during FP2, we found a defective tire with which I obviously couldn’t set a better time. Despite this, I’m super positive for tomorrow”.
