Sturla gasar på bra i Red Bull Motogp Rookies

[Torkel]

Fastest was Norway's Sturla Fagerhaug ahead of Spaniard Luis Salom and Scot Deane Brown. 16 year old Fagerhaug was well to the front in most of the sessions but showed that he was pushing the limit by crashing twice during the second day. 16 year old Salom said he was keeping things cool with one eye on his home Grand Prix and another on 14 year old Brown who he joked spent the weekend in his slipstream.

Fagerhaug was 4th fastest in both the Jerez and Valencia tests, a significant step forward from last year and he jumped forward again in Estoril. He was 11th in the Cup last year but has now made a perfect build-up to his second season. "OK so I've been fast at the tests and it would seem easy to say, 'I want to be Rookies Cup champion' but you've got to be serious when you set goals. Hopefully I'm going to be battling for podium positions consistently and I want to win some races.

"Top 5 in the championship is a goal and better than that would be nice. I'm certainly ready to go racing now, we've done enough testing and I really enjoy Jerez. It's a good track, tricky in places and it should be 2 great races there,"? concluded Fagerhaug.

Han körde om mig på Sviestad in i gokartkurvan och jag var helt säker på att han skulle fortsätta rakt fram för det gick FÖR fort. Men det sa bara swish så var han förbi, tog kurvan perfekt och sen bara försvann han! Inte bra för självförtroendet sån't!

Kul! Hoppas det går fortsatt bra i racen.
Vems självförtroende tänkte du på?

Vad roligt . Han är ruskigt snabb denna där, vi får hoppas att han kan få till det under hela säsongen i år.
