A good beginning for the Kawasaki
PSG-1 Corse team which started this week end with great results.
Regis Laconi scored the best fourth time using a soft tyre, with
a gap of just 6" from the pole of Toseland. The Frenchman
has been constant during all the session and he sprinted in the
right moment even if he still suffers some chattering problems
in the front. Tenth time for Fonsi Nieto who put all his attention
in the optic of the race. Fonsi has still some work to
do in terms of setting up and he has to choose the right
tyre to use this Sunday.
REGIS LACONI:
" This is a very good result for the spirit, I really
needed it. We have the right set up for this track and this made
us competitive from the beginning of this week end. We are not
completely done, we still have some chattering especially bending
to the right so we have to work to be in the perfect conditions
for the races. Tomorrow I want to confirm this position but I
think I can even do better".
FONSI NIETO:
" I'm quite satisfied, it's a completely different situation
compared to the last rounds. Today we especially worked in the
race optic 'cause to be among the 16th of the superpole is not
a problem. We can say to be in the right way but we still have
to try some different solutions 'cause I still have to choose
between the soft tyre and the hard one and everyone knows that
this make the difference so we have to value the choice".
MAURO SANCHINI:
" I did quite good considering that it's an year and
a half that I didn't ride a Superbike. I'm satisfied for the
time, just 2" from the pole, not so satisfied for
the position 'cause I'm not among the 16th of the Superpole.
There's still time to reach them 'cause we are improving. We
are trying different solutions for the rear, that includes different
set up of the suspensions and I think we can obtain some important
results".
