[vc_row disable_background_image=””][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]After a two-week break since the last Grand Prix, the SpeedRS Team returns to the track for the Brazilian GP with some new developments. In addition to the arrival of Dennis Foggia, called up to replace the injured Luca Lunetta, the team also unveils a new look, featuring a bright red livery from main sponsor HDR, a partner that will be present at the American weekend as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is great excitement for the return of the MotoGP World Championship to Brazil, absent from the calendar since 2004, the year of the last race held in Rio de Janeiro. For this new round, the Aut\u00f3dromo Internacional de Goi\u00e2nia has been chosen: a historic circuit that welcomes two-wheel racing again after 37 years.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first part of the day, however, was not kind to the HDR SpeedRS Team riders. Brazilian rain disrupted the schedule, delaying the start of FP1 to 11:00 (UTC-3) and limiting the opportunity to work on a dry track. The session, extended to 50 minutes to allow riders more time to get familiar with the circuit, ended with Foggia in P15 (1\u201931.467) and Vietti in P5 (1\u201930.674).<\/span><\/p>\n

In the afternoon, the Practice session (also delayed by one hour but returning to the standard 40-minute duration) took place on a dry track, although some wet patches remained. Celestino initially struggled in the early phase, unable to get close to the top 14. However, in the second part, after a tire change, the number 13 improved progressively, eventually setting an excellent 1\u201924.271 lap time. This earned him sixth position and direct access to Q2.<\/span><\/p>\n

A more difficult debut, instead, for Dennis Foggia aboard the Boscoscuro bike. The rider from Rome struggled for most of the session, finishing in P28 and missing out on direct access to Q2. Tomorrow he will therefore have to go through Q1.<\/span><\/p>\n

CELESTINO VIETTI #13:<\/b>
\n<\/b>\u201cI\u2019m happy, it was a good Friday. We started well in the wet: the feeling was positive and we were competitive throughout the session. In the afternoon we had a bit more difficulty finding the limit with the track still patchy, but from the middle of the session onward, also thanks to some references, I managed to improve a lot. We made it into Q2, which was our goal, so everything is positive for now. Hopefully we can have a fully dry session to better understand our potential, but it\u2019s definitely a good start\u201d.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

DENNIS FOGGIA #8:<\/b>
\n<\/b>\u201cIt was a bit of a strange day, especially after such a long time away from Moto2. This morning, however, didn\u2019t go too badly: we were about 1.2 seconds off the leader in the wet, so I felt quite comfortable. In the second session, though, the mixed conditions didn\u2019t allow me to find a good feeling. I\u2019m still lacking some confidence and need to fully readapt to Moto2. I still want to thank the whole team for the work we\u2019re doing\u2014they\u2019re helping me a lot. Hopefully tomorrow the conditions will be more stable, either fully dry or fully wet\u201d.<\/span><\/i>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
