Elias feeling more comfortable on the bike and looking for right chassis setup

Toni Elias, the 2010 Moto2 World Champion, began his return to the premier class by finishing with the 17th fastest time as he reacclimatizes himself to the power of the LCR Honda RC212V. Elias immediately felt more comfortable than when he first rode the bike at the end of last season in Valencia and expects the process of adapting to the premier class to continue smoothly.

Toni Elias (LCR Honda): 17th, 2m, 4.238s
“I feel more comfortable now compared with the first run out in Valencia. We still have a lot of things to improve, but actually my position on the bike is good and I could lap with more stability. I lapped 30 runs on hard tyre and further 30 laps on softer compound with small improvements lap by lap. We knew that the adaptation period to this new bike takes some time, but we are positive and we are working hard to find the right chassis regulations to improve the pace.”
