The Pertamina Mandalika SAG Team completes the Catalunya Grand Prix weekend with a bittersweet taste because our rider Bo Bendsneyder could not successfully complete the race due to an electronic problem on his bike. Dutch rider Bo Bendsneyder, who had shown a performance in crescendo throughout the weekend had to retire from the race due to a technical failure on his bike. This setback was undoubtedly a blow for Bendsneyder and the team, who had been fighting for valuable points in the overall standings.
Bo Bendsneyder #64 (DNF)
“We had to stop today due to an electronic problem with the gas, we are not sure why yet but it led to us having to stop. This is something out of our control, unfortunately we had to stop. It’s sad because we could make not a bad race, but now we will look for the mistake. Tomorrow we have an important test for next year, so it will be important to have information about the Pirelli tyres. We didn’t do a lot of laps today, so tomorrow we have the opportunity to do a lot of laps and use this information for next year.”
