Lean angle and body position work to target for Red Bull KTM Tech3 rider.
MotoGP rookie Iker Lecuona will focus on adapting his style to the RC16 in the official two-day test at Jerez this week in Spain.
The Red Bull KTM Tech3 rider, who made a surprise debut at the Valencia grand prix in place of Miguel Oliveira, completed his first testing sessions at the Spanish venue last week.
The time on-track has narrowed his focus for Jerez, where he intends to work on his lean angle and body position aboard the premier class machine.
“I know that I still need to continue my work and adapt my riding style a lot more,” Lecuona commented. “For the next test in Jerez, I want to change some more things regarding lean angle and my body position. On the brakes, I already feel better and also with the electronics but there’s still a lot to do for us.”
The youthful talent was 13th and 15th fastest respectively during last week’s test.
