Rabat: "I'm running out of leathers!"

Tough home race in a difficult weekend at MotorLand

Tito Rabat (Estrella Galicia 0,0 Marc VDS) suffered some crashes at the Aragon GP on the front end, and the difficult weekend for the 2014 Moto2™ World Champion concluded with a crash in the race that saw him falling out of points-scoring contention. A race winner at the venue in Moto2™, Rabat's rookie MotoGP™ experience of the track was more challenging, with confidence undermined ahead of lights out after a crash in Warm Up and front end issues proving a plague of late, with similar issues at Misano World Circuit.

Tito Rabat (DNF): “My confidence wasn’t that high for the race after the crash in the cool conditions this morning in the warm-up. I made a bad start and I was pretty cautious in the first two laps because I was worried about a lack of feeling from the front tyre. Once I got in my rhythm I felt quite comfortable and was improving my pace but once again I lost the front and crashed. It is very disappointing because I could have finished inside the points today. It is clear we have to make some changes to improve the feeling with the front because I crashed losing the front three times in Misano and the same again here in Aragon. It means something is wrong and we have to keep working to find a solution because I am running out of leathers!”
