Friday of the Czech Grand Prix comes to an end with Guido Pini and Adrián Fernández in 14th and 22nd positions respectively:
- Sunny skies greeted us today at Brno for Free Practice 1. Adrián Fernández finished in 10th position this morning with a time of 2’06.145, while Guido Pini was 26th with a 2’07.888, crashing early in the session.
- Improving to secure a spot in tomorrow’s Q2, Guido Pini set a 2’05.899 on his last flying lap of Practice, sitting 14th. Adrián Fernández, on the other hand, didn’t make the cut today, finishing in 22nd place with a time of 2’06.303.
- See you tomorrow for qualifying day!
“We managed to save the day in the end! It wasn’t easy to finish inside the top 14 after completing only three laps this morning due to the crash. We gave it a try and it worked out well, but we’re still 1.1s off the fastest rider, so we’ll need to keep working on improving both our feeling and our lap time. It wasn’t the best day, but I’m happy we made it into Q2”
“It was a difficult first day at Brno. We worked on improving our feeling, but we were still lacking some corner speed this afternoon. We’ll keep working together with the team to regain our confidence, understand where we can improve, and take a step forward tomorrow”
