The words of Fabio Di Giannantonio and Marco Bezzecchi

.

Ended the first on-track event of the 2024 season for the newly formed Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team in Sepang where the first official MotoGP tests come to a close. Fabio Di Giannantonio and Marco Bezzecchi, riding the Ducati Fluo Stream, close in the wake of the strongest, respectively in P8 and P15 in the three-day combined.

55 laps also in today’s day for Fabio, who still improves his time. In the morning, he stopped the stopwatch at 1’57.343 and then devoted himself to a more than positive and convincing Sprint race simulation in the afternoon. A small slip at Turn 9 before lunch, without consequences, and then the head already; to the next test in Qatar in just under two weeks (February 19-20 next ed.).

Fair balance for Marco, who fails to go beyond yesterday’1’57.867. He completed 56 laps and gave up the dry lap attempt to focus on tuning. Also for him a small fall in the final corner 5.

“I return to Italy with a smile, if I have to give a grade to this test, I would say 9 out of 10 said Di Giannantonio to the team’s official channels -. The feeling è was good right away, even the time attack was not bad. I really enjoyed this morning, but the thing that charges me the most è è the result and the feelings during the simulation this afternoon, when it was really hot on the track. We were fast, all the signs are positive. The GP23 è so much more powerful, also in terms of traction and it has a different confidence on the front end. I’m tired, at the physical level I have to recover a little bit’, but I can’t wait to get back on track in Qatar”.

“We close this first test with a day a bit’ complicated – admitted Bezzecchi -. We had a small problem on the bike and we opted not to attempt the time attack. I preferred to work on the riding style again, I am struggling a little bit. The bike è very fast, but I am still not comfortable, I have to adapt and that still takes a little’ time. In braking and acceleration, the sensations are different from the GP22. I have not yet been able to bring the package to the limit, which is the reason why we continue by step and leave aside for a moment dry lap and simulation ahead of Qatar”.

Roma-Juventus: Igor Tudor pampers Kenan Yildiz and makes an announcement about Cambiaso and Douglas Luiz

roma-juventus:-igor-tudor-pampers-kenan-yildiz-and-makes-an-announcement-about-cambiaso-and-douglas-luiz

These are the statements made in a press conference by Juventus coach Igor Tudor on the eve of the challenge at the Stadio Olimpico against Claudio Ranieri’s Roma, valid for the 31st day of Serie A.

“I am happy with this my first full week of work. We trained on the two phases, set pieces and physical condition. I saw the boys with the desire to do well. With Roma it will be an important game, but not a decisive one. It&#8217s a difficult match against a team that is going through a very good moment of form. We, however, want to think about ourselves and try to field the things we are working on” began the Bianconeri coach.

“We have to grow game by game. I believe a lot in working during the week. A team with Juventus must be perfect from a tactical point of view, from the style of play to the structure to the defensive phase. I arrived at a rather delicate moment, but now we have picked ourselves up and started pedaling” continued the former Lazio coach.

“I have seen Kenan in five or six trainings. To be a champion you need consistency in performance and this can only be achieved with continuity, especially mental. I see a young man who is serious and focused on soccer. I urge everyone to be consistent in their growth, work and not settle. This is the key of champions: maintaining the same level of play against every team. Yildiz is young and still has a lot of work to do, but the starting point is very good” added the Croatian coach.

“Douglas Luzi and Cambiaso have only recently returned to the group, so they do not have the 90 minutes in their legs. We know that McKennie is a wild card and his pliability will be very useful to us right now. Conceiçao is a smart player and I think he can also play more centrally. He needs time to settle in that area of the field and grow, but I like his mentality and attitude of work” concluded Igor Tudor.
