22 October 2005 - Aprilia

Alex De Angelis inaugurates the circuit of Istambul Park boxing the good session for the pole position in the class 250 in 1\''56\''930.

The MS Aprilia Italia Corse rider y made in the two days of tests also the maximum speeds, 263,6km/h today and 266,5km/h in the first yesterday’s session.

''I am happy above all for the fact to have gotten the pole on a circuit ever used before - said Alex - it is sign that our method of job is working well. We have been fast, since the free tests of Friday, this means that the complex bike-rider works. Today I have not had particular problems, I have pushed at the top but I have seen that I could also go strong with the competition tyre. This I have realized when I have rejoined to put for a long time the rubber, before I reentered my rhythm was very elevated however. Tomorrow\''s competition will be difficult, also because we are all near, we will see.''

It improves of 0,259s in comparison to yesterday Simone Corsi that brings him in fifteenth position with the time 1\''59\''296.

''I have succeeded in constantly doing better in these two days of test - said Simone - but the first ones are still distant. I like the track but I don\''t succeed in being enough fast in the narrow part of the circuit, tomorrow I will try to attach for taking points.''

Alex and Simone will be in footstep for the 250 competition to the 12.15 Italian Time (13.15 now local).
