MotoGP Silverstone: Yamaha approach 'crucial' part of season

Movistar Yamaha's Valentino Rossi and Maverick Vinales go into this weekend's Silverstone MotoGP round after trying to work out a better electronics approach during testing at Misano.

Both the riders are still unhappy with the uncompetitiveness of the M1 but with with the recent loan of Pata Yamaha electronics Gandalf Michele Gadda to the garage, the pair hope Silverstone could be a turning point.

"We've got a lot of work done at the Misano test last week, so now we are ready for the next round of the championship at Silverstone," said team boss Maio Meregalli.

 Maverick really loves this track and also Vale has enjoyed great successes here. The British GP has historically always been a strong race weekend for our team, because the track lay-out suits our bike well and our riders both like its fast corners and sweeping lines.

"Last year we secured a double podium, and this year we'll fight even harder. We're at a crucial part of the season, so we have to keep pushing 100% every race weekend."

It will be interesting to see if Gadda is at the Portimao WorldSBK test tomorrow or not...
