Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia RS-GP) acknowledged that he expects “more than fourth place” for the starting line-up of the MotoGP German Grand Prix at the Sachsenring circuit.
“Yeah, I was expecting a bit, but in the end it was the tenth of a second that separated me from pole position so … I know I wasn’t very smart in qualifying and I also came from a crash on the 4th. Practice, but nevertheless, I will soon achieve it, but it is true that the fourth is little known when you get used to the ‘pole’; in any case, it is delicious “, says Espargaró.
Regarding the German race, Aleix Espargaró said: “I have very similar speed with Pecco and Fabio, but what worries me more than speed is the damage to the rear tire, which I think will be very high for everyone, but for me. more than Barcelona, so we will see who can cope with this situation “.
Although the only valid solution for the Aprilia rider is none other than “push harder at the beginning and if it degrades more at the end, then bad luck”.
To his rivals, he assured: “I don’t think they’re a bit ahead, it’s true that Ducati worked well and on soft wheels he was able to be the fastest -Bagnaia-, but this morning he had me beaten by fifty thousandths and in the afternoon one tenth, so in terms of pace we are similar and in terms of position it’s true that it’s a bit better, but at the speed I didn’t expect it to be faster “.
“Fabio is making a lot of progress today and it won’t be easy, but it will be interesting to get some points from him before the summer break and I will try everything tomorrow, but it won’t be easy”, explains Aleix Espargaró is thinking about the championship.
In your chances of winningacknowledged: “I’m a bit more affordable in Barcelona, here I’m not far off in terms of speed, but it will have to be understood, because I’m not very clear about it, I just don’t see who has the better running in the last ten laps, because although the race distance is always the same, thirty laps here is very long and the rear wheel on the left side is very hot for a long time, so the last eight or ten laps will not be a question of who is the fastest “.
And he assures that “for me, mine, the Aprilia is the best bike on the grid. Because I’m really sorry, I have doubts that it would be better with another bike. For me, mine is the best, but if you study the championship, The Ducati is the best on the street, I can’t understand how no Ducati is leading the championship “.
