In nobody´s country

For a third time this season Motogp took part in Spain, this time to a brand new venue at Aragon. Depsite very nice infrastructure aroud the circuit sometimes you feel like out of Earth.

 

Hills and mountains aroud quite far distance to civilization make you fell an Earth does not exist.But from feelings let look back to real racing.Jakub Kornfeil reached laptime that secures 18th spot on the grid in tommorow´s hopefuly sunny race.We had one practice more on Friday that could help little bit with adaptation on new circuit but better adaptation for riders that have never tested here before was very hard because of weather conditions.Friday´s heavy rain impressed morning second session and grip from tarmac basicaly disappeared before second day of practicing.
Jakub Kornfeil: It was very nice to see one more practice that Dorna added on, but bad weather conditions complicated our way to find a good setup. I was satisfied with my first practice I did because of fifth place in very firt appearance here at Aragon and the second practice was not so bad as well I finished 14th. Saturday´s weather was so much better than yesterday and the Sun was shining in the qualifying practice. I think the 18th spot is not so good success. Maybe because of not so good Saturday´s free practice where I was riding alone what is not so good for a new circuit adaptation. I tried to wait and follow somebody, but simply nobody was there and if they were they just gave up their hot lap. I was a lot better in qualifying practice. Did not matter we were last category of the day, because racing line was was sweeped off and rubbed. Because it was sliding a lot this morning.I went out on the track in very first group, bacause I wanted to catch some faster guys that could help me to reach better laptime. I was dealed with my team if the bike is working perfect I will do just one pitstop and my bike was really working well and I was still trying to catch faster guys. I set my personal best when I tried to follow current leader of the class Marquez. His Derbi RSA is definitely faster than my Aprilia RSW, but it was great advantage to follow him just a few sectors. It could be little bit better I know, I could maybe stand in the row 4. Obout the race will be decides in first corner which is very narrow and not so far from the start.
