Trackhouse’s Raul Fernandez also crashed and injured himself on Wednesday, leaving Aprilia short of 50% of their rider line-up.“We don’t have my test bike, we have the official riders’ bike,” Savadori said on Thursday in Sepang.“We are focused on developing the bike, not on performance. We need to understand some solutions better.Savadori insists that Aprilia are making progress with their problem of stopping the bike.“It is never enough. But it’s a little step in the correct way.
“For Aprilia, the shakedown was a shakedown for three days! I tested the bike, if everything worked well.Quotes provided by Peter McLaren in SepangGet the latest MotoGP news, exclusives, interviews and promotions from the paddock direct to your inbox
