Mixed feelings for Pramac D'Antin
02 November 2007The Pramac-d'Antin Team had varying results, with Alex Barros finishing the day in seventh place, whereas his team mate, Chaz Davies, suffered a heavy crash during the morning session and was unable to partake in the afternoon session after being transported to the Hospital of Valencia to verify the extent of his injuries.
"During the afternoon free practice, we were able to improve the front and the rear a lot, for which I'm satisfied and confident for tomorrow morning," said Barros. "Also, we have tried to find the best tire, as far as durability, looking towards the race on Sunday. Concerning the engine, we continued to perfect small aspects of the delivery, and have reaped it's benefits, In addition, we're starting tomorrow with a fresh engine which will give me a little "extra boost" and help me to lower my times so I can get a good spot on the grid during Qualifying."
Chaz Davies commented, "It's a shame I crashed this morning, because I had a good feeling with the bike and was going well. The crash was my fault, because on my out lap I went a bit slow and when I tried to force the pace coming onto the straight the rear tire was still cold and the traction control wasn't able to compensate so I was launched up. Tomorrow I'll try to ride, and I hope I'm not in too much pain because now my hand and back are hurting pretty bad."
