Moto GP - Termas proves tough as Suzuki pair miss out on Q2

Press release available only in original language.

Following a tricky opening day in #argentina, which saw the track lacking in grip, Day 2 proved to be a tough one too. Although the track stayed dry, the conditions were not optimal and it was difficult to find improvements in lap times, especially as the pack remained very close.

In FP3 many riders pushed to try and ensure a place in Q2, and the early part of the session saw both Rins and Mir hovering within the Top 10. However, as the chequered flag flew the Team SUZUKI ECSTAR pair found themselves down in 15th and 17th - although, amazingly, the Top 15 were covered by less a second.

FP4 showed signs of promise and Rins finished just six tenths of a second from the top, with Mir eight tenths off.

But the Spanish duo found troubles in Q1, despite previously trying several different tyre combinations. A lack of feeling cost Rins and Mir on the time sheets, and they closed Saturday in 16th and 19th respectively.

Davide Brivio - Team Manager

“Today was difficult, now we have to check the data and try to understand where the struggles came from. The lack of grip is still causing us some issues. Alex’s race pace isn’t bad, but he wanted the big jump to get into Q2. Joan is finding corner exit tricky at the moment. We’ll do our best to recover good results because we feel that our pace is almost there.”
