Axel Bassani is preparing to face the challenges of the Portimão circuit, where BbKRT will have two intense days of testing, essential for adjusting the machine for the upcoming race weekend. The focus on the demanding and dynamic Portuguese track highlights the importance of fine-tuning the harmony between rider and motorcycle to extract the best possible performance.

The experience accumulated in the opening round in Australia was decisive for the improvement of the bimota KB998 Rimini. The team gathered valuable information and identified specific areas to develop, taking into account the adverse conditions and the technical challenges of a circuit that, although new to many, imposes high technical demands.

In Bassani’s case, the focus is mainly on improving rear performance and straight-line speed, aspects that proved crucial to get closer to the top positions. His experience in previous tests allowed him to identify areas where the machine needs fine adjustments, ensuring that each test session contributes to the team’s progress, with the Italian rider previewing the work on the Portuguese track:

– We will have two days of testing in Portimão soon. It will be a really important test, as, right after, we will have a race weekend there. We need to try to find the best setup for the race. Certainly, it won’t be easy, given that Portimão is a quite demanding circuit, but we already had a day of testing there and won’t be starting from zero. This is fundamental, as all circuits will be new for us when we arrive at the race. We will have new things to try, but without many new items.

Bassani then explained where he needs to invest more to evolve: ‘We need to improve in several points, especially in the rear part for me. After Phillip Island, we found that the base is not bad, as we were very close to the top positions. We know that one of our weak points is straight-line speed, so we have to focus a lot on where we can improve and not think so much about that aspect. We will try, in some areas, to get closer to the top riders’.

Bassani is thus betting on the constant evolution of BbKRT, demonstrating that, through dedication and hard work, it is possible to transform challenges into opportunities for improvement and success in the upcoming races.
