Aprilia: ad Rivola explains the reason for Maverick Viñales’ fall

Aprilia: Rivola ad explains Maverick Viñales fall

A huge mockery for Maverick Viñales. The Aprilia centaur, in fact, è saw himself fade from second place in the Grand Prix of Portugal, the victim of a crash on the last lap. Explaining the reason for the fall è was the CEO of Aprilia, Massimo Rivola, at the microphones of Sky Sport: "It seems that Maverick has broken the gearbox, this è what we see from the data. Now we are taking apart the gearbox to analyze it, but almost certainly he è broke that".

"The interesting and sad thing è that the problems he had already had several laps before – added Rivola– and so in the first sector he was losing a tenth and a half becauseé the sixth gear was jumping. Maverick did not have a splendid race, even more so! On paper you could win".

"It’s two races in a row that we had a package to be able to win with two different drivers, but we don’t pick up anything" again, even more so, there has to be an examination of conscience on our part" because" it’s notè acceptable to see drivers who drive so" well not score points. Getting to see the checkered flag è the first rule of racing. Today there’è great disappointment, but the glass half full è the performance of Maverick, who drove even better today than yesterday. This gives us hope for the future becauseé the team has figured out the key to go stronger".

“We still have a lot of races ahead and Maverick will haveà other opportunitiesà physically in the fall there’è was only of a’graze for Maverick, no big deal. We don’t want to say that this is a born-again rider because last year he finished several times on pole, but in testing and the first race he struggled a bit. Here we believe we have found him again and we hope to see him for the next times" commented the ad of the House of Noale.
