MotoGP Qatar – Hafizh Syahrin with tough qualifying

MotoGP Qatar – Hafizh Syahrin with tough qualifying
Bruno Gomes
March 10, 2019

 

Syahrin, Qatar MotoGP 2019

In just a few hours Hafizh Syahrin will start the first race of the season from the 22nd spot on the grid, his first with the new Red Bull KTM Tech 3 team. But if in his first season in MotoGP the young Malaysian star surprised everyone with how fast he adapted to the satellite Yamaha machine, this season Syahrin and the Tech 3 team are having a tough time to make the KTM RC16 work as they want.

Hafizh Syahrin did improve his lap time during the Qualifying 1 session, but the strong winds in combination with the grip problems he already said he’s suffering on the KTM, made it impossible to get a better grid position

“I was able to improve my time, but not my position. We made a small step, but we need to find a good rhythm for the race pace. At the moment we are not sure about which tyre to use for the race, I tried to find out, but it was not easy and I will keep on working hard with the team and speak for the Warm Up and the race tomorrow. Let’s see what we can do and how we can maybe further improve on the bike and myself. I want to enjoy the race and try to learn as much as possible”.

With more than ten years as a motorcycle journalist, i enjoy everything that has to do with two-wheels. I'm a fan of sport bikes and i prefer riding them on a racetrack, but give me a road filled with corners and good asphalt and i'll be there to have some fun!
