WORLD DUCATI WEEK KICK OFF

Alvaro Bautista #1
SUPERPOLE RACE NC
RACE 2 NC
“It’s a real shame, especially for what happened in Race 2. I made a strong start from the tenth position and by the first corner, I was practically already with the leading group. Then, unfortunately, I was hit by Petrucci who probably went long. In Superpole Race, on the other hand, I made a mistake, but for nine laps the feeling was good and it gave me a lot of confidence ahead of Race-2.”
