WorldSBK Test: Aragon ‘not easy for R1, but feeling is good’ - Locatelli

Andrea Locatelli completes his third WorldSBK pre-season test at MotorLand Aragon i🔯n a month with improvemen🔯ts made.
Locatelli was affected by two ‘strange crashes’ as he described it back in mid April during the first test, before poor weather affected his second opportunity to🐎 test at the Spanish venue.
But last week’s track action resulted in Locate𓃲lli improving his time from the previous two tests, while he also menti🦄oned the ‘feeling of my R1’ being better around a circuit that has been a difficult one for Yamaha recently.
Locatelli sai🐲d this following🦂 the two-day test: "It was better on day two compared to day one and in general, the feeling of my R1 is good. We have worked a lot and tried different set-ups, we also did a long run to understand the performance over a race distance.
"It was very good for me to🃏 do this because it’s important, but also it has not been easy for Yamaha on this track in the past so I want to work and push to understand where I can imp💮rove.
"The last test here was not so good fওor me, but now the feeling is better, like I had at Ba🌺rcelona or Misano. I know my first race in WorldSBK will not be easy, this I expect, but I want to learn and to improve.
"During the🍒 race weekend we have a lot less track time, but maybe I can follow other riders and learn more – and then maybe on Saturday during the first race I can be in a positio💫n to fight a little bit.
"The weekend of the first race, with the 🌟emotion and energy, for sure will push me more compared to testing!"
