Raúl Fernández is almost at his disposal the most recent RS-GP and after stating that he understood the bike a little better and what it allowed the other Aprilia riders to do, he recalled an intense battle that is taking place this year between the competition , with Marc Márquez in mind.
The Trackhouse Racing rider, who is still looking for new features for next season, spoke about the bikes and how today the difference is perhaps not so much in the bike itself, as he explained on the Fast & Curious podcast, with other protagonists in mind: ‘There’s no doubt. Everyone says that the Ducati 23 is worse than the 24 and we have Márquez fighting with Bagnaia’.
Fernández then explained what could be «the key» to improving his performance, until he then had the most version of the bike from the Noale manufacturer: ‘I think for me it’s also a little more psychological than what’s actually on the bike. Because, certainly, at the end of the day there are good things, good things, bad things, always. When we go to do a tuning, the first thing the technician always teaches us is that there is no perfect tuning’.
Still, he clarifies that he has to limit himself to working to the best of the material he has: ‘We have to make the best of what we have, but there are always good things and bad things, so it’s the same thing with motorcycles; there are always good things and bad things’.
The most recent reports point to the possibility of Fernández having the RS-GP 24 from Silverstone.
