Webb enjoys first outing on WRB machine

The Ricardo Tormo Circuit provided the location for Danny Webb’s initiation on the Aprilia of the Jack & Jones team this week, as the youngster began the process of fine tuning the bike to his own requirements ahead of the new season.

The test proved a successful one for both rider and team, with Webb finding a very comfortable “feeling with the bike”, despite still carrying some after-effects of his crash in Malaysia.

Webb completed just 20 laps due to the slightly unfavourable conditions of the track, and the 18 year-old was pleased with how things went.

“I like how the team works a lot,” said Webb. “I believe in them and I think we have the best mechanics. I’ve gotten used to them very quickly and this is because they have a great attitude. With some more tests and some fine tuning of the bike, we know we can be fast.”
