The Argentina GP is history.
We saw a great race, unfortunately not with the hopped success for Stefan. He started quite passable in the race and came out of the first lap as 14 across the finish line. Then Stefan rode to 12th place.
Stefan stayed there until the middle of the race, but then the problems started with the traction control.
Apparently the electronics could not optimally respond changing rear tire on the in the contour, because as Stefan lost two-tenths in each of the three highspeed corners (which are crossed with over 200 km / h). Only six-tenths are in this three corners.
Stefan was easy to overtake for the other riders at this moment.
So Stefan fell back to 17th, but he fight again in the points back. In the last lap, had Stefan back overtake even more Nicky Hayden and secured the 15th place and this last point also with happiness through the fall of Aoyama on his official factory Honda.
We see it positive, after the two zeros in the first two races this at least to a point back to home. In Qatar due he a mistake as 16th in the last lap and in Austin shot down from Miller, is not so exited. Of course, Stefan is understandably disappointed yesterday from the race, but the racing can be so hard. The season is still long, it can happen a lot. We think the team know where it must fix the lever from the technical side and looking forward to Jerez.
Stefan was already on the track test and he was there really fast.
Sounds promising, but you also must relative this. 2014, the tires of the open bikes were softer than this year, and it was an different electronic. This year come the level again closer. To get the good Ducati’s and well functioning Suzuki’s and strong open Hondas!
All together reasons why it is more difficult to get points this season.
