MotoGP: Sepang Test Day 3, Alex de Angelis “The balance is better than I could have expected”

Sepang 1 MotoGP test – Alex de Angelis from San Marino said he was satisfied with the three days of IRTA testing carried out on the Sepang circuit in Malaysia. The new Iodaracing rider had the objective of doing as many laps as possible to become familiar with the bike, the 2014 version of the ART used last year by Danilo Petrucci. Today, on the last day available, he managed to improve the time set by the Terni native last year, coming close to what he did with the Yamaha Open in 2014. The microphone is his.

“I am satisfied with the work we have done in these three days. The balance is even better than I could have expected before leaving. Not only did I manage to improve Petrucci's times, but I am also a few hundredths away from my reference in the race with Yamaha. These three days were invaluable in getting in tune with the team. Now we also know what the limits of our bike are and the areas where we can work. Now I can't wait to return to Malaysia to continue testing, including the new Aprilia electronics that we should use in the championship and which we haven't used yet.”
