SOLID RACE FOR NAVARRO WHO FINISHED THE GRAND PRIX OF FRANCE IN THE TOP TEN

The fifth round of the Moto2 World Championship has just ended on Le Mans circuit. SpeedUp Team finished the French Grand Prix with the tenth place of Jorge Navarro and the crash of Alonso Lopez on the third lap of the race. The rain affected the entire French weekend, making the track conditions more complicated: morning warm up in the rain, but the race on a mostly dry track. Navarro’s performance was remarkable and he managed his race well although the pain in his left shoulder after the crash in the warm up. A disastrous start in which he lost 10 positions, but this didn’t stop the number nine who managed to find a good pace starting his comeback up to the tenth position. Alonso Lopez, making his world championship debut in the Moto2 class, was able to adapt to the Boscoscuro bike right from the first laps on track despite the difficult conditions. Author of a good start, Alonso crashed on the third lap while overtaking without sustaining any injury..

JORGE NAVARRO#9 - 10th
“It was a super tough race because after the crash in the warm up I had problems with my left shoulder. It hurt a lot and I didn’t know if I was going to race. At the beginning the track was damp and so I didn’t want to risk it. After a few laps I started pushing and overtaking until I got to the top 6 group. Too bad I couldn’t fight much with them because in the braking the pain in my shoulder was strong, but in any case, happy because we saved the impossible today and I think the top 10 is a good result for the way this weekend went. With today’s data we are going to Catalonia for two days of testing from which I hope we will come out much stronger”.

ALONSO LOPEZ#2 - DNF
“I’m a bit sad because I wanted to finish today’s race and get as much experience as possible with this bike. At the start of the race, I felt good and in fact I managed to overtake a lot of riders, but in the third lap when I wanted to overtake another rider I went long and ended up on the grass. In any case, I am very grateful for the opportunity that has been given to me and I hope to be able to take advantage of this experience in the future”.
