The race weekend at Lusail International Circuit immediately drew attention after Fermin Aldeguer shared reassuring news regarding his physical condition. The talented young rider surprisingly managed to perform competitively on the opening day, despite recently returning from a challenging injury recovery period.
During the practice session held under the artificial lights of Qatar, the key Gresini Racing rider came very close to securing an automatic spot in Q2. This strong performance dispelled lingering doubts from paddock observers who worried about his hand strength following a recent sidelines absence.
Aldeguer admitted that his physical progress significantly exceeded the team's initial expectations ahead of the weekend. "I feel much better than I expected, for sure, regarding my hand," the rider revealed to media personnel, emphasizing that he no longer experiences constant pain while handling his machine.
Nevertheless, adapting back to the demanding pace of a premier-class motorcycle still presents distinct hurdles. He noted that minor mistakes occurred because he still needs to accumulate laps to fully regain his precise references and confidence on the tarmac.
The fierce competition across the remainder of the weekend promises to intensify as he continues his adaptation process. Read our in-depth analysis and catch all the latest updates directly from the MotoGP paddock right here on Sportrik.
