After encountering some difficulties in FP1, the Aruba.it Racing – Ducati team’s rider was able to lower his lap times significantly in the afternoon.
Despite a harmless slide at Turn 1 halfway through FP2, Alvaro also showed tangible progress, finishing in sixth position in the combined standings with a time of 1’26.580.

“The feelings weren’t bad this morning. However, we had to work on the setup to adapt the bike to such a technical track. I also want to thank the team for the incredible job they did to get me back on track quickly after the crash. Surely the feeling is not the same as last year, but I am still satisfied with how things went today.”
