Moto3 2015 Aragon Day 1: after the first victory of his career, achieved right on his home circuit, this extraordinary moment continues for Enea Bastianini. In fact, today he finished both free practice sessions in first place, starting the Spanish weekend in a better way than he could have done.
In the opposite mood Andrea Locatelli who, following the fractured coccyx sustained in Misano, was unable to complete more than 7 laps, pondering whether it would be appropriate to stop for this race.

“I'm satisfied – he said beaming Enea Bastianini – because today we were immediately fast with both the hard and softer tyres. In the morning the situation was slightly better than in the afternoon, also because then the conditions changed completely, with higher temperatures and the wind blowing in another direction. The weekend started well, but we can still improve in various areas: now we will analyze the telemetry to understand which are the points in which we can make the most progress. Unfortunately, at the end of the second round I fell following contact with Ono, who had already blocked my path several times while I was trying to overtake him. Nothing serious, but it would be better to avoid certain things during the tests."

“We are evaluating whether it is appropriate to continue the weekend – continued a patient Andrea Locatelli – and honestly at the moment I don't think it's worth it: after only two or three laps I struggle to move and it becomes difficult to drive. It's a shame, I hoped to feel better but instead it's very hard. In the afternoon the situation worsened, evidently during the laps done in the morning the fractured area became inflamed, causing a series of problems that continued to bother me even once the tests were finished. Maybe we'll try to get out on track again tomorrow morning, after which we'll evaluate what to do."
