Dominique Aegerter and Remy Gardner are gearing up for the fourth round of the 2023 FIM World Superbike Championship at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, Spain, on 5th-7th May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After a good weekend in Assen where both riders achieved their best WorldSBK results so far (4th for \u2018Domi\u2019 and 6th for Remy in Assen Race 2), the GYTR GRT Yamaha rookies are looking to improve further. For the first time this season, Aegerter and Gardner have already enjoyed track time on Catalan soil at the Superbike test one month ago, where both ran their Yamaha R1 machines and completed solid test overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This track knowledge should serve both riders well, but both the Swiss rider and the Australian are aware that track conditions and tyres will play a key role this weekend. Gardner\u2019s Crew Chief Damiano Evangelisti states: \u201cWe should be careful at the temperatures, firstly, as they will have a big impact. Afterwards it will be crucial to understand the tyres as we\u2019ll face two long races and we need to keep them in good condition for 20 laps.\u201d Damiano Evangelisti, capotecnico di Gardner, <\/strong>afferma: \u201cDovremo essere attenti alle temperature dato che avranno un grande impatto sul weekend. Successivamente sar\u00e0 cruciale capire le gomme dato che affronteremo due lunghe gare in cui sar\u00e0 fondamentale mantenere gli pneumatici in buone condizioni per 20 giri.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team as whole is keen to collect promising results in Barcelona following the Assen success, as Team Manager Filippo Conti says: \u201cIn Assen both Dominique and Remy proved their capabilities, showing great speed. We would like to enjoy a similar weekend in Barcelona, so we\u2019re hoping to be strong once again.\u201d Team Manager Filippo Conti states:Team Manager Filippo Conti explains: <\/strong>\u201cAd Assen sia Dominique che Remy hanno dato prova delle loro capacit\u00e0, mostrando grande velocit\u00e0. Ci piacerebbe ripeterci a Barcellona, dove speriamo di essere altrettanto rapidi.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Aegerter and Gardner it could be an interesting weekend. \u2018Domi\u2019 points out: \u201cTyre management will be important. I think we\u2019re ready for one fast lap, but we still need to adapt our riding style and setup for the long races. Anyway, it\u2019ll be interesting to start here having collected some data already.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same can be said for Remy: \u201cI hope we can improve our performance. We\u2019ll race at a circuit where we\u2019ve had some tests, but conditions may differ a lot, so we should pay close attention to how the weekend develops.\u201d \u201cSpero che potremo migliorare le nostre performance. Correremo su un circuito in cui abbiamo gi\u00e0 effettuato alcuni test, ma le condizioni potrebbero essere molto diverse. Dunque, bisogner\u00e0 prestare attenzione allo sviluppo del weekend.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
