MotoGP | IRTA Qatar Test Day 1: Petrucci, “I was fast from the start”

MotoGP Ducati Pramac Test IRTA Qatar – Danilo Petrucci said he was satisfied with Day 1 at Losail. “Petrux” started off strong straight away, also recording the top speed of the day (346.7 km/h). Subsequently, the rider from Terni (who had two GP18s at his disposal for the first time) worked on his race pace, scoring 8th place, 4 tenths from Vinales' best time. The word is up to him.

“I was fast from the start and it was important to get a good start straight away. I am really very happy with the behavior of my bike also because we have changed little since the tests in Malaysia and Thailand – said Danilo Petrucci – For tomorrow we will work on the new fairings. We just need to understand which set up to choose and then on the third day we will do the race simulation.”
