Tech3 Racing team’s Remy Gardner showed a strong performance on Friday, after he already started the day with fast lap times and was able to even slightly improve in FP2 this afternoon to eventually end up in 15th overall, less than half a second from the top 5. Meanwhile Bo Bendsneyder was working to try to find a good feeling riding the Misano world Circuit Marco Simoncelli for the first time with his Mistral610. The Dutch rookie concluded day one just 0.535 seconds behind his teammate.
Bo Bendsneyder ; Position: 29th– Time: 1’39.541 – Laps: 39
“Today has not been easy and in the end we’re again in a position that we don’t wanted, but we did many laps and worked hard in FP1 and FP2, which were really consistent. Finally, there wasn’t a real fast lap, but today we also focused on the work for Sunday and not on a single lap. I think we found something, which could bring us this extra step in order to arrive in the 38’s, so we will see if we can improve in case it’s dry tomorrow.”
