BETA TOOLS SPEEDUP

FP1/FP2: P3 AND P11 FOR ALDEGUER AND LÓPEZ ON THE FIRST DAY OF THE THAI GP

The Beta Tools SpeedUp returned to the track today at the Chang International Circuit in Buriram, scene of the seventeenth round of the season and last round of the first triple of 2023.

For Aldeguer and López the first day of free practice at the Thai GP ended in P3 and P11 respectively in the combined standings.

Fermín showed a lot of confidence and determination on his Boscoscuro in both sessions. With the hard tire in FP1, the young man from Murcia gave the other riders a hard time by setting the second-best time in 1’36.354, just +0.088 behind Acosta. Even in the second free practice the feeling was good and the number 54 worked a lot on braking and lines, finishing third in the combined thanks to a time of 1’36.005.

A slightly more uphill morning for the number 21 who, after a pit stop, concluded the session in P16 with a time of 1’36.919 (+0.653). Alonso then improved during FP2, finishing with the eleventh time in 1’36.606.

 

ALDEGUER #54: 3rd in 1’36.005

“It’s a complicated track for us but, even today, we showed great confidence and a lot of feeling with the Boscoscuro. It took me a while to do the quick time attack with the hard tire but tomorrow we will give 100% to conquer the front row”.

LÓPEZ #21: 11th in 1’36.606

“Today we could have showed more but we focused on some details that needed to be perfected. All in all, I’m happy with today’s work because I believe we have a well-defined line to follow. Tomorrow we will definitely do better.”
