With starting my first test with Stratos team at Valencia (Ricardo Tormo´s Circuit) and first time on a Moto2 bike I was please by my team and progress each session out… Due to rain in afternoon it was cut short but will have extra 2 days testing before the first race of the year on April 15th weekend. It’s going to be a journey that I expect to learn and grow each round. We will be posting on all our social media sites with updates. Thanks for the support!
