Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
Press release available only in original language.
Less than a second separated the top 12 riders on the timesheet after a bitterly cold opening day at the TT Circuit #assen. #michaelvandermark ended the day fifth fastest only 0.03 seconds from P1, while his Pata Yamaha #WorldSBK teammate, #AlexLowes, finished 10th, despite crashes in both sessions due to the track temperature, which never exceeded 13 degrees Centigrade. GRT Yamaha Supported #WorldSBK rider, #sandrocortese, bounced back from a difficult FP1 to finish eighth in FP2, while #marcomelandri ended the day a disappointing 14th, after once again struggling to find a confidence inspiring set-up on his #R1.
Van der Mark kept his home crowd entertained during FP1, as the only Dutch rider on the #WorldSBK grid pushed to try and depose reigning world champion, Jonathan Rea, from the top of the timesheet. In the end the Pata Yamaha rider fell short by little more than a tenth of a second but was happy to close out the opening session in second place. Changes to the to his #R1 for the second 50-minute session this afternoon didn’t bring significant improvements, but after further adjustments van der Mark was able to consistently improve his lap times to finish in fifth position, and just 0.031s from the top spot.
Both free practice sessions for Lowes were hampered by crashes, with the Pata Yamaha rider losing the front into turn nine this morning and then suffering the same fate at turn one this afternoon on a rapidly deteriorating front tyre. Despite the two crashes Lowes was satisfied with his consistency and is confident that he has the pace to improve on 10th position in FP3 tomorrow.
The cold conditions brought problems for #WorldSBK rookie Cortese in FP1 this morning, with the reigning Supersport world champion unable to find a good feeling with his #R1. Reverting back to the base set-up with which he secured solid results in the opening three rounds solved the issue, with Cortese bouncing back to finish FP2 eighth on the timesheet.
