"We're happy to be back in action in Brno, but we had expected better weather for the Friday. The morning session was especially tricky because the track conditions were gradually changing, which makes it difficult to test anything or lock down a setting. That said, both Fabio and Álex were okay with the feeling in the dry towards the end of FP1, but then the heavy rain came at the start of the Practice. The new tarmac here provided enough grip for Fabio to feel comfortable, and he did a good job securing a place in Q2. Álex struggled more in the full wet, and he lost some time when he had to switch bikes. It got better as the track dried out towards the end, but he will still be taking part in Q1. It seems like the remainder of the race weekend will be dry, so we will use FP2 to get the riders on the right track so they can push to the fullest in qualifying and the Sprint."
