Carrying on his form from testing at the Texan track in March, LCR racer Stefan Bradl posted the third fastest lap time (2’06.173) on the opening day of the Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas. The former Moto2 World Champion, on the LCR Honda RC213V, moved into the top three in this afternoon 45-minute session after a tough first outing in the morning due to the poor grip conditions.
Stefan Bradl
“Today has been a strange day for us. This morning the track conditions were pretty bad and the grip level was very poor so we could not use our advantage from the test. At the end of this morning first session, I was very disappointed but, in the afternoon, the grip was much better and the sun was shining so I could ride a lot faster keeping the top positions. We could use the data and the references obtained in the test but we still have to adjust the race set-up especially when we are on used tyres”.
