Statements Maverick Vinales Test Portimao

“The track is different to what we are used to, due to the changes in gradient and most of the corners have blind entries. Overall I felt really good. It's the type of track I like, because you need a lot of fluidity and speed in the corners. I have already found a good feeling with the standard road bike and I think it will be even better when I ride the MotoGP, I will be even faster. The track looks fantastic and is a lot of fun. The biggest challenge here is the wheelies. We will have to work a lot on this because there are a lot of gradient changes and we need to have contact with the front, so we will have to change the bike a bit. The last corner is fantastic, I love it. I expected the track to be longer, it's actually quite short, but I like it.”
