“I’ve adapted over the years, now I don’t want to make any more mistakes”. Maverick Vinales used these words in an interview with DAZN, in which he spoke about the past as well as his future ambitions. The Spaniard’s words certainly did not go unnoticed, so much so that someone even suggested they were saying goodbye to Yamaha.
On this matter # 12 wanted to clear up the matter …
“To tell the truth, I’m a little tired of having to be here every time to explain my explanations – he said – First of all, I want to make it clear that I was pretty general and my words were skewed. It seems that we cannot speak generally because tWhen controversy arises, they always try to conflict me with my people and my team and then attack me. All of this is a bit exhausting. What I mean is that I’ve made mistakes in the past and because of that experience I wouldn’t want to make them anymore. In 2014 I could have done another year in Moto2 to keep growing, but Suzuki offered me MotoGP. Now I’m with Yamaha and inside I’m proud because I feel good and they have full confidence in me ”.
After that was settled, we talked about what happened on the track.
“We are working to understand the situation and I have to say that there has been a big improvement over yesterday. In fact, we tried to get the correct information by obviously comparing the two bikes available. In FP3 this morning I was competitive as I had some excellent sensations while trying to do better in FP4 but without doing anything sensational. As I said before, we try to find the right compromise step by step with Silvano.
Eventually, attention turned to the tires …
“I have to say that I have good pace with the medium, while the soft risk is a bit softer than usual and we therefore have to evaluate it. In FP4 I found good grip, even if the bike risked” with the Hard to slip. For now, the best option is to choose front and rear medium, although we know the tire will deteriorate tomorrow.
