Top ten finish for Remy in Donington Race 1

The GYTR GRT Yamaha WorldSBK Team riders, Remy Gardner and Dominique Aegerter, delivered a determined performance in Race 1 at Donington Park, finishing ninth and seventh respectively.

The day began with a productive Free Practice 3 session, allowing both riders to fine-tune their setups ahead of the crucial Tissot Superpole. In the intense 15-minute qualifying session, Remy set a 1’25.953 to qualify 16th after making a mistake on his quickest lap.

As the lights went out for Race 1, both riders made an immediate impact, gaining ground in the opening lap. Remy impressed, carving his way up from 16th to finish ninth, showcasing strong race pace throughout the 23-lap contest.

– Superpole: P16 / Race 1: P9

“Overall, it was a solid race. Of course, qualifying didn’t go our way, and starting from that far back in WorldSBK always makes things tough. Still, I’m happy with our race pace – it was strong from the first lap to the last, and we were matching the times of the guys fighting for fourth. Hopefully we can carry that into the Superpole Race tomorrow and build towards a strong Race 2, aiming to stay as close to the front as possible.”
