Morbidelli highlighted the team’s consistent improvement, stating, “We started the season very well, we started with a great pace. We got better and better step by step, improving our weak points. And in the first ten laps in Qatar I had a really unbelievable feeling until I didn’t get the tyre use quite right. We just need to keep working as we started, and keep doing what we know. And let’s see where we can finish.”
The race at Jerez adds another layer of excitement, being a historic track and home turf for many competitors. Morbidelli appreciates the vibrant atmosphere, acknowledging, “Jerez is a great track, it’s a historic track on the calendar. The crowd is always beautiful, it’s really passionate here. And it’s the home race for many of the riders on the MotoGP grid, but also Moto2 and Moto3. So, it’s an interesting weekend for sure.”
As MotoGP heats up, Morbidelli is not only focused on his performance but also keenly aware of the challenges posed by local favorites. The rest of the season promises intense competition, as Morbidelli tirelessly pursues further success.
