Marco Bezzecchi Had A Serious Problem But He Was Able To Fix It

RiderTua.com – In Friday afternoon practice, Marco Bezzecchi crashed with his Ducati Desmosedici GP24 at turn 1 of the Jerez circuit. The VR46 rider immediately recovered and ended up in 4th position, 0.399 seconds behind the fastest rider Pecco Bagnaia (Ducati).

After Bezzecchi experienced difficulties in the last race at COTA, he felt stronger again in Jerez. He said it was a good start to the weekend when comparing it to previous races. “I don’t want to take a risk and say that I’m back, because lately things have been worse after a positive phase. But I felt good with the condition of the track in the first few meters. I made significant progress in the area of the top of the curve, where the problems already happened since the first test,” said the 25 year old rider.

Marco Bezzecchi Had A Serious Problem But He Was Able To Fix It

Marco Bezzecchi revealed that he experienced serious problems, but he was able to fix them step by step, such as with the brakes, when entering the corner and when exiting the corner. He couldn’t go any further towards the top until finding some good points on Friday.”

“Now the feeling is similar to last year. Of course I’m not close enough to the front rider. I lost about 0.1 seconds in speed. This is of course the most difficult thing. Overall, I’m very happy with the start of this weekend,” added Putra. That Vito Bezzecchi.

Why has Bezzecchi improved at Jerez? The Pertamina Enduro VR46 rider said that Jerez had less grip than the previous track. That helps make it easier to turn the bike with more movement on the rear wheel. Previously he had braked quite hard at Texas and Portimao, but when cornering with less grip, Bez felt better. Valentino Rossi‘s student was able to feel more comfortable on the bike without changing any set-up.

“The front of the bike needs more weight to go through corners. I’m used to that, even though it’s difficult for me. When racing I still have to remind myself how important it is. Sometimes it works, sometimes I go back to my old racing style,” concluded Bezzecchi.
