After a failure of the Ducati rider, Petrucci was able to pass him  finishing the race in front of a motorcycle prototype.

Good race also for Lukas Pesek, who finish in nineteenth position, his first race of the season. Even for Pesek, the weekend of Mugello has helped to increase the confidence in the Ioda Suter BMW.

Danilo Petrucci 
“I am very happy with my 12th place, which is very encouraging. At the beginning I tried to stay with Barbera and De Puniet but they had a step better than mine. Spite all I was amazed by my race pace, it is the first time that I can be so fast over a GP. Eventually I managed to contain the return of Andrea Iannone who had made a long and for this I managed to finish the race in front of a motorcycle prototype. I’m very satisfied because we are putting to good use the experience of the past year. With the team we are working very well and we were able to find this a great set up. Even the electronics is working really well and this makes me optimistic for the next races. “

Lukas Pesek
“My goal for the Mugello was to get to the finish and finally I done it. The fact that I have not ended the previous races I was a bit penalized and are back again for this. With the team we were able to find a good set-up and this makes me optimistic for the next races. But I must improve in many parts of my riding style, especially when I’m fighting with someone, because I can not be as effective as I am alone. “
