First Podium of 2021 WorldSBK Campaign for GRT Yamaha in Aragón
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
The first round of the 2021 FIM Superbike World Championship came to a close today under wet conditions, and with it came GRT Yamaha #worldsbk Team’s first podium of the season, with #garrettgerloff storming to third place in the Superpole Race.
The last day of the weekend represented a great step in the right direction for the GRT Yamaha riders, as demonstrated both by the performances on track and by the final results, despite the non-completely satisfactory outcome of Race 2.
Gerloff’s day had started off with the eighth fastest time in the Warm-Up, which was followed by his first podium of the season, a third place which he achieved in the Superpole Race after an impressive recovery, having initially dropped to 14th on the opening lap.
In Race 2, the American continued to show great confidence and pace and was able to fight for the lead in the first laps, until an off forced him to make yet another stellar comeback from 13th position, and he eventually crossed the finish line in seventh.
Kohta Nozane also impressed on Sunday, running a strong Superpole Race, climbing to ninth from his 16th starting spot thanks to his consistent pace on the intermediate tyres. In the longer Race 2 he was not able to repeat the same top-10 performance, but he ran a smart and error-free 18 laps, gathering important experience in mixed conditions and still improving on his Saturday result by finishing 12th and taking more points.
After the first round of the season, Gerloff sits sixth in the championship with 23 points, whereas Nozane is 15th with seven. In less than a week, the #worldsbk riders will be on track again at the Circuito do Estoril, with Free Practice 1 kicking off the weekend on Friday 28 May at 10:30, followed by FP2 at 15:00, local time.
