Presented at Losail the bike with which Bautista and Bradl will race the World of the premier class. Colaninno: "Aprilia is the most advanced platform of Piaggio Group". Albesiano: "important and ambitious Season"

Here is the new Aprilia, finally. Gray, with inserts of red and green ( "recalls the Italian flag" smiles Alvaro Bautista), the RS-2016 GP is ready to direct confrontation with opponents, after the debut, behind closed doors, here in Qatar last week. "More than one test was making contact, to understand the reactions of the pilots" explains the Aprilia technical director, the engineer Romano Albesiano. The season 2015 was difficult for the Noale, but had been budgeted: the bike from last year derived from the series, this is a real MotoGP. "Considering its origin, the RS-2015 GP has done miracles: the 2016, however, is another matter entirely, must open a road, represent the future Aprilia in MotoGP" says Albesiano, conscious that the way ahead it is still very difficult, because to be competitive against Honda, Yamaha, Ducati and Suzuki takes time and investment.

TWO YEARS - The technical director of Noale traces the birth and development of the new project. "We started talking about this bike two years ago, with the first assembly drawings and then the engine configuration, is the most ambitious project ever made by our racing department. Compared to the previous year is a true prototype, lighter, more extreme. the first feelings of Bautista and Bradl were encouraging: the RS-GP is handier, compact, directional. After the first test, the drivers took with a smile: it is already positive. "

PROGRAM - The program of these three days, the last before the start of the World, is obvious. "Continue to learn about this bike, bring out the limits, collect data, go home with a reasonable performance," explains Albesiano noncommittally at odds, without going into too much detail. "In 2015 - are the words of Bautista - there was a development plan and was a bit 'frustrating get on track: Now it's completely different, this is a real MotoGP, easier to drive and with an engine more regular. it takes time, but there is a basis on which to work. "

STRATEGIES - "From the point of view of the Group's strategies, Aprilia Racing is not only the sports team of Aprilia - the words of Roberto Colaninno, president and CEO of the Piaggio Group - is the most advanced platform for experimentation and technological development for the ' entire Piaggio Group, which benefit all products and all brands. for this reason, from this season 2016 motorcycle livery is clearly the Piaggio Group logo. the technology developed for the racing business is not in fact intended only to races but it is used to test innovative solutions that will be applied to road products, from super sports motorcycle until the scooter, with the ultimate objective of improving the performance of our products, their safety and the ability to offer our customers pleasure and fun to drive ".

Thai Superbike FP2 van der Mark roars but watch the Cannibal Rea

The Dutchman gives wings to Honda, but Rea is the most decisive step on. Well Torres, Ducati in difficulty. Race one on Saturday at 10 Italian.

Michael van der Mark throws the old Honda CBR atop the standings on Friday but beyond the substantial advantage of the Dutch talent Jonathan Rea is usually the favorite to win in the first challenge of Buriram. With the new format after Friday there is no time to prepare for race one, aside fifteen minutes of warm up.

So it is strategic mettesi in place very quickly. And in Thailand this goal has been particularly difficult because the FP1 was practically useless because the sand on the track.

Honda lapped in 1'34 "629, about one second from the record in 2015 by Jonathan Rea, a sign that the path begins to rubber, nothing to do with furrows in the sand in the morning. Van der Mark has left behind the two Yamahas of Sylvain Guintoli and Alex Lowes, then there Rea trailing by 685 thousandths, but put very well on the pitch. Kawasaki has used only two tires and with the second Jonathan has a substantial part of the planned race of 20 laps. Van der Mark made two time attack with a fast lap on the third of four steps. The afternoon surprise, in a sense, was Jordi Torres has remedied the morning slipped (the first lap!) Brought the BMW to third place. Even for only very short outputs Spanish, for which the potential is to be evaluated.

The dish but not banal track Buriram has exalted the protagonists of a year ago, as if the technical changes have had less weight of the attitude of the pilots. Alex Lowes, for example, went to the podium with Suzuki and even van der Mark and Guintoli were strong gone. Same story, unfortunately for the Ducati that just does not digest this track. Chaz Davies last year fell twice, this time it's only eighth ahead of his teammate Davide Giugliano absent in 2015 due to injury. More than aiming at the World Kawasaki here seems light years away.

Bad day even in Aprilia Alex De Angelis has had electronic problems, and he shot very little, Lorenzo Savadori broke the engine in the second session. Had in mind it would be tough, saved participation at the last moment and beginning the World Cup without testing. But it is too ...

Superbike "Dorna, because you left Marco Melandri on foot?"

Alberto Vergani, the driver manager, calls into question the Spanish promoter. "Flammini was more and in the case of Biaggi was decisive." Background: Melandri has a sponsor but lacks the bike?

Jailbird was the special "Superbike, which numbers!" Published by gazzetta.it Alberto Vergani, Marco Melandri's manager took a look at the statistics and, cast, wrote to Dorna putting in copy also corsedimoto. The accusations are the tough ones: according Vergani the promoter of the Superbike World Championship is guilty of not helping Marco Melandri finding a place despite the honors and the role of pilot Italian reference that would have automatically assumed.

The Vergani provocation pushing to draw a parallel with Maurizio Flammini, the previous manager, who in 2007 made false papers to convince Max Biaggi to race in Superbike, spianandogli the road.
The Vergani move is confirmation that Melandri is looking for a motorcycle. The pebble in the pond made a lot of noise, now we'll see if there will be reactions from Dorna. And 'interesting to note that Vergara has summoned Marc Saurina, the commercial director of the Superbike, that is, the manager in charge of sponsorship and number three in the chain of command. The head of SBK operations is Javier Alonso and his right arm is Daniel Carrera. That Vergara has in hand a sponsor interested in Melandri to race but we are currently not available or team or motorbike? E 'hypothesis, but very intriguing.


Below we report the full letter Vergani to Dorna.

Hello Marc!

Reading the special edition of the Journal this morning I decided to write my regret at the absence of Marco from World SBK. Unfortunately I could not find a place for him and the organizer is not able to do what was Flammini (with Biaggi for example) at the time when he had to compete against Dorna.

It is not a complaint but an objective fact about a driver who does not want to retire and who won 19 games in four seasons. Among those activities only Sykes and Rea thanks to a supermoto who wins by four years. Sorry for consideration but the facts are these.

A hug

Alberto Vergani
