Moto3 Sachsenring, GP: Bastianini still on the podium (3rd), Locatelli also positive (9th)

Moto3 2015 GP Germany GP: wonderful all-Italian battle for 3rd place in the German GP which saw the team prevail Enea Bastianini su Roman Fenati e Niccolo Antonelli after a very long series of overtaking and counter-overtaking. This beautiful performance guarantees the Rimini native a move into 2nd position in the general classification with 124 points.
Very good too Andrea Locatelli, still fighting in the second group, who finished 9th bringing his world championship tally to 28 (15th position).

“This third place is very important for the championship and gives me a lot of energy – the words of Enea Bastianini – because I managed to win the sprint for the podium at the finish line: so far we have always been a bit unlucky in the sprints, but this time I managed to come out of the last corner stronger than Fenati and it was a great satisfaction to beat him. It was a very difficult race, but if there had been less brawl with Hanika I probably could have tried to stay with Vazquez to fight for second place: when Efren was still close enough I took the lead of the group and tried to pull, but the tires were already worn and it was not possible to gain a margin over the other riders, also thanks to the trails on the long descent. With this race we have passed half the championship and it is very nice to still be in second position in the standings: my goal on the eve of this season was to try to stay in the top three and I am succeeding."

“I'm happy because we're back in the top ten – he commented Andrea Locatelli – achieving a position that we have believed to be within our reach since the beginning of the season. In the first part of the race I had a bit of difficulty keeping a constant pace, the bike moved a little at the rear, I lost ground especially in T2 and I was forced to recover in the rest of the track. Afterwards I pushed hard to close the gap to the first group of riders and in the end it wasn't easy to continue to be consistent, it was a long race and I was a bit tired. However, we finished the race very close to the podium so I'm satisfied: we worked well throughout the weekend and my technicians were able to immediately give me a bike the way I like it. Let's continue working like this, these are the performances we want to showcase."
