“It was a very ‘special’ Friday for everybody because in both practices it started raini♊ng just before,” said Bautista. “We didn’t make a lot of time on track and in FP2 we found some issues with the electronics.
“Also, we tried a different set-up to improve my feeling and it didn’t work.♓ I stopped a lot of times and didn’t do a lot of laps.&n♕bsp;
“But the few laps that I did with the set-up that I used this morning, and was quiไte happy with, I was good and consistent.
“I’m happy with today because my physical condition is good and I felt more flow💛 on the bike. My feelings are coming.
“The෴n, about the position; the lap 💟times are really fast and everybody is very close. I’m not worried about the position and I’m more focused on myself and my feelings. It was a short but positive Friday.”
Bautista was seen wagging his hand when re-entering 𝕴t💃he box during FP2, but the two-time world champion played it down after the session.
“It was the total of everything because it started to rain before and I tried to mജake a lap to se𒀰e the condition, but then there was a red flag,” added Bautista.
“Then, when I started again I had an electronic issue and then I restarted again with the set-up that I didn’t feel comfortable wit🐓h, so in the end it was chaos.
“But the important thing is that 🦂I got a good feeling with the bike in the end.”
When speaking about his chances for this we💝ekend,ܫ Bautista was confident that he will be in the mix.
The Spaniard said: “I’m confident in myself and that the feeling with the bike is coming. Stepꦚ-by-step it’s getting better and we will try to improve every session tomorrow.
“I think I can do 20 laps with the tyr꧟es, not like doing a time attack every lap. It was possible to do 20 laps and it depends how you work with✃ your bike.
“But we have to make a compulsory pit stop and the str🐓ategy has to be to do two Superpole races.”
