“The first few races confirmed what I expected after winter testing, that the new RS-GP is a huge step forward for Aprilia. That said, we still haven’t been able to fully exploit the potential. we have. Every weekend, the circumstances have led to results that do not represent my feeling on the handlebars. Misano is a circuit where our bike is performing well and where we have been testing, so it could be a good opportunity to come full circle and aim for the positions we deserve ".

We still consider Misano to be a "home GP" for our team. We look forward to racing here twice in a row. It’s also good that we have a few authorized spectators in the stands this weekend, so that we may get a little taste of the generally fantastic atmosphere of this circuit. It will be a busy time. We have two consecutive races here and we also have a test in Misano on Tuesday next week.

Davide Brivio, Suzuki team manager

".

Herve Poncharal, KTM Tech3 team manager

“The Red Bull KTM Tech3 team will arrive at the Misano circuit with an always very positive feeling after Spielberg’s incredible achievement. Clearly, Misano will be a different story. The circuit is very different but we raced there this summer and this will be very interesting to monitor the performance of the KTM RC16 with our four riders on this twisty circuit. We did some testing before the 2020 season starts again here and the feeling for both Miguel and Iker was pretty good even though good of course all the other competitors weren’t there. It’s interesting to have two GPs on the same track because you can experiment things, which is impossible in a single event. We are eager to continue on the good trend that we have since the start of the 2020 season. Miguel and Iker are both in great shape and they are perfectly ready, as always. It will be a pleasure to be on the Adriatic coast! Two races in this period th of the year in such a beautiful place, it’s great. We will also see how the organizers manage the spectators, because it will be the very first time this season. This is very good news, congratulations to them and to Dorna! We will also have other journalists there and it is nice to see that we are trying little by little to get back to our normal organization. In short, everyone is looking forward to being in Misano for FP1 on Friday morning! "
