Tire management, however, will not be easy in view of tomorrow’s race. “I managed myself in the first laps, but in the end I was still at the limit with the tires because with these hard casings the bike tends to move on the straight – explains Martin -. Usually I tend not to change my set up: I took a step ahead in Free Practice3, but in the race it won’t be easy because many riders will be in front.”
