ALBESIANO: “A POSITIVE WEEKEND FROM THE START. WE ARE REAPING THE FRUITS OF OUR HARD WORK”

Alvaro Bautista’s tenth place and Stefan Bradl’s twelfth in the race demonstrate the progress that the Aprilia RS-GP machines showed throughout the weekend.

The many changes tested in recent weeks and brought to the race at Misano gave the Aprilia Racing Team Gresini riders a positive approach from the very first sessions.
