JAKARTA - The 2023 World Superbike (WSBK) race will continue at the Donington Park Circuit, England, this weekend. Racer Aruba.It Ducati Alvaro Bautista has mature capital ahead of this race.
Prior to the race at Donington Park, Bautista held a trial with the Ducati MotoGP team. This trial made him increasingly confident in facing the British WSBK series.
"The (MotoGP) test lasted for two days with a lot of fun on the bike. I got very good feedback and was able to adapt very quickly to MotoGP style with engines, power, brakes, tires, and frames very different from WSBK," said Bautista.
According to him, although adaptation when riding motorbikes for MotoGP and WSBK is quite different, this difference plays a role in increasing his confidence as a racer.
The defending WSBK champion said he had communicated with the Ducati team regarding the feedback about the motorbikes he had tried for the two racing classes.
"I've asked Ducati to change some items on a special bike for ergonomics because I feel the bike is a bit big for me. I don't know if Ducati will make this change, but maybe we can retest and try again to see if I can feel better on the bike," Bautista said, quoted by Antara.
Regarding the race in England, the Spaniard said he was looking forward to the sixth round of the 2023 WSBK season.
"We arrived at Donington Park and maybe it was a difficult race for us in the past. Every year feels different, and anything can happen. I'm really looking forward to this weekend," said Bautista.
"Trek has been repainted, the layout is amazing, and it's one of the best tracks in the world. From the first time I (the shirt) was here 20 years ago, I liked it. I'll try to have a good feeling on the bike like we had in the first round of the season," he added.
