MotoGP Austin: Andrea Iannone, “I'm satisfied, I still know how to ride”

Andrea Iannone MotoGP 2016 Grand Prix of The Americas Team Ducati – A satisfied Andrea Iannone spoke at the end of the first day of MotoGP testing in Austin, Texas. The #29 of Ducati, after the Argentinian crash, when just a few meters from the finish line he had overwhelmed and caused his team-mate Andrea Dovizioso to fall (both of whom ended up on the ground), in fact achieved the second fastest time behind Marc Marquez, who took the word.

“Compared to this morning we improved by almost a second, both in terms of lap time and pace and this is good news. It's nothing new, I still know how to drive, we've always been fast in practice in the other Grands Prix too, now we need to do well in the race – said Andrea Iannone – Tomorrow we'll do a comparison of the tyres, which in any case have already improved a lot compared to this morning, even though we haven't covered the full race distance yet. I've always run on used tires and I'm therefore happy, even if I lose something in T3.”
