Dovi & Aprilia – Jerez Test

ANDREA DOVIZIOSO CONCLUDED THREE DAYS OF WORK ON THE RS-GP IN JEREZ

NEW TEST AT MUGELLO NEXT 11TH AND 12TH MAY

From 12 to 14 April Andrea Dovizioso went back to the track, after four months of absence from the circuits, and they were days of intense work, largely occupied with the necessary adaptation between bike and rider.
Over the three days Andrea has progressively and positively increased his knowledge of a bike that is obviously completely new for him and was able to start providing many data to the technicians.
With the rigor and analyticity that are his own Andrea has touched all aspects of the RS-GP: engine, electronics, chassis, aerodynamics, providing valuable information and addressing changes to the basic package that have constantly improved his performance and his confidence with the bike.

Chronometric performance was never sought, both because the many adaptations did not allow it and because this was not one of the goals of the test.

Aprilia Racing and Andrea Dovizioso will deepen what they achieved in Jerez with a new test on 11 and 12 May at Mugello, therefore on a track with different characteristics, where Andrea will be able to ride an advanced bike according to what emerged on the Andalusian track.

Andrea Dovizioso:
“It was a great emotion to get back on a MotoGP bike and for this I want to thank Aprilia Racing. It was an interesting three days, largely dedicated to finding the best position on the bike. Together we decided to do another test at Mugello in about a month and in the meantime work on some aspects of the bike ”.
