Alvaro Bautista takes 10th place away from challenging Brno weekend
An uphill Czech Republic Grand Prix ended with a tenth place for Alvaro Bautista and the Team GO&FUN Honda Gresini.
The Spaniard, who struggled with a lack of rear grip from the start of the weekend, made a good start from the fifth row and he was able to recover up to tenth position after seven laps, a position he held until the end without the possibility of catching the group of riders in front of him.
ALVARO BAUTISTA (10th)
“During the race I was able to recover some positions, but I’m not happy with the feeling I had with the bike: I struggled with the same problems we had during the whole weekend, I can’t actually feel the contact between the rear wheel and the asphalt and in these conditions it was difficult to ride. I made a good start, but soon after some riders passed me because they could get into the corner more quickly, while I was not able to do it due to lack of rear grip. Then I recovered those positions, but I couldn’t do much more. Too bad, unfortunately at the moment we can no longer find the good feeling of the first races of the season. We need to work hard in the next few races to find something that can allow us to get more grip”.
