TOO MUCH TRAFFIC: MANUEL AVOIDED THE LAST LAPS
As Manuel already got the pole position yesterday, he concentrated his efforts on the choice of the tyres for tomorrows race trying to improve the setting of his bike as well. He reached his objective but Manuel decided to avoid the last laps of the session because of the traffic so the Aprilia rider has not been able to maintain his pole. Anyway Manuel feels satisfied.
Manuel Poggiali: “At the end there was to much traffic and I decided to stop because it could be dangerous. Even if the marshals show the blue flag someone always rides in the middle of the track: I want to discuss it with Uncini because it’s not correct. I do not care about the pole: the most important thing is the setting of my bike and I feel at 100% now. We also found a good solution for the tyres. Now I am expecting a dry race somehow.”
