MotoGP Brno: Good 7th place for Petrucci, bad luck for Redding who loses the podium due to the tires

Team Pramac Scott Redding Danilo Petrucci MotoGP 2016 Gp Brno – Team Pramac among the protagonists at the Czech Republic Grand Prix thanks to Scott Redding who for most of the race was in the leading group with the official Ducatis and Barberà's SAT. In the end the Tuscan team finished with a good 7th place for Petrucci, while Redding finished only 15th due to the anomalous degradation of the front tyre, which came at the best moment while preparing for the final part of the race in the fight for the podium. However, the top 10 is guaranteed by Petrucci who on the last lap managed to get the better of Vinales and Iannone (also with the same problems as Scott) for a precious seventh place.

“I can't say I'm particularly satisfied even if in the end it's a good result – said Danilo Petrucci – It was a strange race. We didn't have a good pace in the warm up and that's why we made a lot of changes. The choice of tires was decisive. Maybe we could have taken a risk with the hard but we have goals and I wanted to do the race on my target which is the Top 10. In the end I managed to finish seventh and that's not bad. I would like to thank the team and all the people close to me."

“I was very happy with my race – concluded Scott Redding – I made a good start and was doing very well. I felt a great feeling and was in control. The bike set up was perfect. I felt that the front tire was starting to not perform well but it was normal and I would have been happy with the Top 6. I was also managing to catch up with the group in front. But suddenly that anomalous and sudden degradation cost me the race. I stayed focused on getting to the end and getting a point. It's a shame"
