Moto3 Estrella Galicia 0,0 Riders Improving In First Free Practices At Catalan GP
Jorge Navarro was the fastest rider in the morning session and Fabio Quartararo ranked seventh in the combined timesheets.
After the rain that fell at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya yesterday afternoon, the riders tackled a dusty track in the morning on Friday which caused some grip problems for the Moto3 category. But that did not prevent Jorge Navarro being the fastest rider in the first practice as the Grand Prix of Catalonia got underway. The Valencian rider started in a highly focused manner and stopped the clock at 1’51.988s. His teammate, Fabio Quartararo, was 0.777s behind, occupying eighth place in the morning session.
In the afternoon, the Estrella Galicia 0.0 pair reduced their times, with Quartararo seventh in FP2 with a time of 1’51.806 and Jorge Navarro 8th, improving on his good time recorded in the morning.
At their home Grand Prix this weekend Team Estrella Galicia 0,0 count on the help of some extra staff in a special technical team, as three students from the Monlau Repsol Technical School participate in a pioneering World Championship initiative: the “Wild Card Internships”. Two motorcycle competition mechanics students and a Masters of Engineering student are working under the supervision of engineers and mechanics from the Team Estrella Galicia 0.0 World Championship squad, putting into practice everything they have learned during their studies this year.
The Estrella Galicia 0,0 riders will be back on track for FP3 at the Catalan Grand Prix, from 9am on Saturday.
