P1 – Benat Fernandez (Team#109 Retro Traffic Kove)
“We did our job, and I feel really good with the setup. I was very comfortable on the bike and able to put in a strong lap. The race will be a group at the front because it’s very difficult to create a gap but I feel good. I think I can be at the front and fight and that’s my main objective. I don’t have specific expectations because if you don’t meet them you can feel disappointed. My goal is to learn. This is my first race. There’s no pressure and I just want to study for the next races. I want to understand how the others move and manage the race and for me to keep learning.”
