MotoGP Aragon: Andrea Dovizioso, “We are fast but we lack consistency”

Andrea Dovizioso MotoGP 2016 Aragon Team Ducati – Andrea Dovizioso spoke on the eve of the first day of testing for the Aragon Grand Prix, the fourteenth stage of the 2016 world championship. “Dovi” spoke about the track and also answered a question about the fins, which will be banned from next year. The word is up to him.

“Aragon is a completely different track to Misano, where we didn't go very well, but this is a particular season and I wouldn't know what to expect. There's always the unknown of the tyres, we'll wait to get on track tomorrow and then we'll try to understand what we can do.”

What type of track is this and does it suit the Ducati?

“It's a track with a lot of mileage, here we will have harder tires and maybe four choices on the front. Only tomorrow morning we will understand more, it is always difficult to make a prediction. We expected a lot from Misano and instead we weren't competitive. We know that ours is a fast bike, but we lack consistency."

Is the knee injured in the Misano tests okay?

“I have no more problems, I will go on the track without any limitations, the injury is now a memory.”

Nakamoto, executive vice-president of HRC in an interview said that the arm problems may have been caused by the winglets (banned from next year), what are your thoughts?

“I honestly couldn't answer you, there has been a continuous evolution on this aspect in recent years, but it cannot be quantified numerically. On weekends there isn't time to make comparisons between bikes with or without fins in relation to the force to be "applied", especially this year when there is also the new Michelin."
