SAN MARINO GP RACE: ALDEGUER SIXTH AT THE FINISH LINE. LOPEZ TWENTY-NINTH AFTER A CRASH AND A LONG LAP PENALTY
The San Marino GP race, held today at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, ended with two contrasting results for Beta Tools SpeedUp: an excellent sixth place for Aldeguer and a twenty-ninth position for López, penalized by a fall and a penalty.
Fermín was able to manage a demanding race, starting well and immediately recovering precious positions. The number 54 rider was then the protagonist of an intense duel for sixth place, finally managing to prevail over Arenas and Moreira. Despite the good performance, the race pace and the pace of the weekend in general did not allow him to compete with the top 5 for a better placement.
Different fate for Alonso, whose race was marked by bad luck. A fall at turn 16 even before completing the first lap compromised his chances of obtaining an important result. However, López showed great tenacity to finish the race, despite having to serve a long lap penalty with three laps to go. The Madrilenian rider therefore finished in twenty-ninth position. A result that leaves a bitter taste in the mouth, especially considering the potential shown during the weekend in San Marino.
FERMÍN ALDEGUER #54: 6th
“During the race I wasn’t 100% fit and unfortunately the race pace didn’t allow us to aim higher, but I’m satisfied with my performance and the work done by the team. Now I’m taking this week to rest and recharge my batteries in view of the next Misano”.
ALONSO LÓPEZ #21: 29th
“I’m angry and disappointed. It’s certainly not the result we had imagined for this race. I probably forced my hand a bit and slipped, even at a certain speed. Now it’s time to reflect and understand how to face the next part of the season which will be decisive and fundamental”.
