Michel Fabrizio getting ready for Assen round

Italian rider Michel Fabrizio (Aprilia Red Devils Team) is gearing up for the Dutch GP – third round of the World Superbike Championship – hoping to find the same kind of form he displayed at the opening round of the season in Phillip Island.

In Australia Fabrizio conquered the first spot on the starting grid and followed that up with a third and a forth place in the two races, but in Aragon he didn’t go anywhere near that sort of results: in Spain he collected a 8th place in Race-1 and a 11th lace in Race-2, and in qualifying he didn’t go past the SP1.

After the Australian podium and the tough Aragon race, Fabrizio and his team will be focused on searching once again for the best feeling with their Aprilia RSV 1000 Factory, a bike that neither the rider nor his crew have worked with before the current season.
In 2012, with the BMW S1000RR of the then half official BMW Motorrad Italia GoldBet team, Michel Fabrizio got himself a 6th and a 10th place, but he’ll have to do better than that to defend his current fifth place in the standings.

Here’s what he had to say before the Assen round:“Phillip Island has been useful for believing in my possibilities and in the team, Aragon for understanding that there is still a lot of work to do if we want to be with the best and that all details are important.
The Spanish performance, so different from the Australian one, has been an incentive.
This week end I will try to show my best.
”Team manager Andrea Petricca is determined to give his rider all he needs to show off his talent:“A top level team can be recognized by its work plan and from constant results even in unfavourable situations.
We trust in Michel completely.
Our job is to put him in the conditions to express his talent.
It’s our main goal.
