Jorge Martin He gave himself homework so he could fight with it Marc Marquez for the pole. The one from San Sebastián de los Reyes finished fourth in Friday’s free practice, behind Gresini and the two Aprilias, but he believes that if the feeling with the front area improves mid-corner, he will be able to fight for pole this Saturday.I’m not far from the front line. It is at the level of sensations at the front, especially in the middle of the bend, that I suffer the most. If I improve there, I will be on pole“, he acknowledged in a preview of the MotoGP GP of Aragon.
“The track was on the limit, but I went to the limit too“, said the MotoGP rider. On the asphalt, the Pramac rider acknowledged that “the track is something special and you have to adapt to its evolution in training. In a fast lap I gave it my all. I have a lot of grip at the rear and it pushes me a lot from the front, and on the second attempt I can’t take advantage of it because I feel like the steering is closed from the front and I can’t take advantage of the extra rear grip. I hope to find something for tomorrow and go a little faster.
Because Brand He leans the bike more than him, Jorge Martín pointed out: “It doesn’t have to be like that. If you have a specific setting, you don’t need to lean as much to turn the same way. Imagine, he has a different setup and leans more towards that, but It’s clear that he’s comfortable from the start and he’s going very quickly.“.
Regarding the new asphalt and the grip of the track, Jorge Martín commented: “It’s a bit strange. They did a very good job, but yes It’s strange that there are curves like 3 that are impossible to fall off.but you go all out and nothing happens, and others like 9 where you enter cautiously and you feel like you’re going to fall at every turn. It’s strange that this happens in some corners and not others, but overall the grip is pretty good.
Martinator acknowledges that he needs to improve some “I’ve tried different things, I felt very good when braking, I’m like Pecco or Marc. It is rather in the center of the curve that Pecco and I lose against Marc, but the balance of the day is very positive. I made a step in my facility (setting up) base, so to speak. Finally, he was asked about Marquez’s superiority and he replied: “Tomorrow we will see if Marc’s situation is like that or not.. On Friday, the important thing is to qualify among the top ten.
