NaikMotor – Latihan bebas (FP) MotoGP seri ketiga di Circuit of The America (COTA) di Austin, Texas, Tim Yamaha membaik, Ducati terpuruk. Di FP hari pertama MotoGP 2019 Amerika itu, Pembalap Monster Energy Yamaha, Maverick Vinales tercepat.
Jika pada FP1, Pembalap Repsol Honda, Marc Marquez mendominasi, namun di FP2 giliran Vinales teratas. Secara mengejutkan, Valentino Rossi melesat ke posisi ketiga di belakang Marquez.
Secara hasil kombinasi di FP hari pertama MotoGP 2019 Amerika itu, Vinales masih yang tercepat diikuti Marquez dan Rossi. Pembalap gaek, Rossi di FP2 menggunakan ban kompon soft agar grip lebih optimal.
Sementara, itu Marquez telah menggunakan deflektor swingarm yang kontroversial ketika digunakan Ducati di Argetina, tetapi menjadi legal. Namun, Marquez mengakui efeknya bisa positif dan negatif. Tetapi efek downforce-lah yang ditekankannya terutama saat pengereman.
Tetapi di seri Amerika itu justru tim Ducati, Andrea dan Dovizioso, terlempar dari posisi 10 besar di FP2 dan hasil kombinasi FP hari pertama MotoGP 2019 Amerika. (Afid/nm)
