Silva satisfied with work so far but disappointed about qualifying result

 In MotoGP, News

The Avintia Blusens MotoGP team members have had a hectic pace lately as their three CRTs ridden by Silva, Aoyama and wild card rider Corti on Inmotec will participate in the G.P. of Valencia. Iván has been working in search of a set-up that would enable him to be competitive in the race, but also to score a time which would enable him to have a good spot on the starting grid. Finally Silva stood close to his rivals and although he was lacking a perfect lap to be able to score the desired time, he’s still convinced to have a pace good enough to battle.

22_Iván Silva (18º, 1’34.407 +3.563): “We have worked all right, but I am a bit disappointed though, because it’s my last chance to offer the team a good result. Round the end of the practice I set a tyre to attempt to drop down to 33’’ and gain a few positions, but it proved to be impossible. We were not able to ride in dry and I was not self-confident enough to gain the few necessary thousandths. Anyway, the sensations were very good and we have a good pace. I think tomorrow we´ll be able to fight the four riders who were ahead of us today and I hope I will complete the race on the CRT podium”.
