Marco Bezzecchi arrives at the Tissot GP of Portugal in 14th place in the championship, after a disappointing weekend for the Italian rider of the Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team.
In a debrief, the Italian rider spoke about his expectations for the Portuguese GP at the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve:
– ‘Last year was a good start to the season, but this year I’m coming here with difficulties. My expectations are to keep developing the bike and find the best way to improve it. I really like this circuit, it’s very specific. As for the bike, I’m trying to look at the 2023 bike to see what I need to improve. I have to change my riding style a bit with this year’s bike. In Qatar during the race I had a problem with the bike, so I’m still having some difficulties. This year’s bike is very different, specifically when braking and approaching corners, so I’ll try to adapt to the bike as best I can and try to be fast.
