“Our main goal is to continue the work we started at the GP of the Americas, where the data shows we found a good setup balance with both riders. Theoretically, Lusail’s layout should be a track where the Yamaha YZR-M1 can better express its potential. Starting in the right direction will be key, and I’m very curious to see where we stand on Friday evening after the Practice session that decides direct access to Q2. Austin showed us a very motivated Miller, pushing the Yamaha to its performance limits, while Fernandez who gained more confidence and knowledge of the bike with every session. I’m sorry that Miguel is forced to miss another race, and we’re all looking forward to seeing him back soon. Meanwhile, we’ll work hard to help Augusto improve on his Austin result.”
