Circuit Carole

Test

Jules Cluzel didn’t come in Circuit Carole since 14 years, and rediscovered the track with his Yamaha R6. Gear selector test has been made, in order to have a riding style more precise. Test have also been done on engine break and rear brake. Indeed, Jules doesn’t have a strong rear brake since he has the gear selector on the ride side. This test day has been a huge step forward, with a lap time of 1’00’1.

Jules Cluzel : ” Today has been a great day for us. Even if it’s a small track, it has been interesting to ride here. First of all, physically you have to be strong and to push 100% to be fast. We found great settings for my riding style, and also for race starts. It’s incredible to have that kind of conditions to prepare my self, I’m now ready for Jerez (Spain).”

Corentin Perolari pursues his recovering after his crash in Imola and his broken collarbone. He trains on a motocross bike and will ride in Alès (France) on a R6 next monday before joining GMT94 team in Spain for the 6th round of the World Supersport Championship.
