Last year was very good for Aprilia in the Catalan GP, with Aleix Espargaró to take a double win and having Maverick Viñales on the podium and that is something that motivates Raúl Fernández a lot, he who is still looking to find his best level this season.
The Trackhouse Racing rider recalled exactly the results from 2023 to reassure himself that he should be able to do well: ‘I feel very lucky to have four Grand Prix’ in Spain. This one is special, mainly for Aprilia as they got a 1-2-result here last year so, for me, it’s great to get there knowing that our bike works amazingly at this circuit’.
Fernández continues to make his way, getting better, and wants to continue on that route:
– Honestly, I’m very happy to go there after we found more progress again in Le Mans. I’m happy with the current situation and I will be going to Barcelona to enjoy the race weekend because I think we are really working well.
The #25 has 18 points added so far, being 15th in the championship standings.
