WSBK Motogp Transition - Bulega

[Skub]

On the differences between WorldSBK and MotoGP, Bulega: "I HAD TO CHANGE MY STYLE, MY HEAD ALMOST EXPLODED..."
After his first day on the GP25 prototype in official competition, Nicolo Bulega revealed the differences between SBK and MotoGP.
"Right now I don't see anything extraordinary or impossible. It's just that everything I do on the GP25 is different from the Panigale: I'm talking about braking, downshifting, corner exit, and braking. Once you combine all these things and complete a lap, your head explodes (smiles). The rear brake at the end is like a scooter, I even use it in SBK and I really like it."

Speaking of braking, what's the difference?
"In SBK you can be as aggressive as you want, whereas here you can't. The truth is I had to change my style, and after two years in SBK, it's not easy to change in one day. If I can be more natural, I can do better.

Back to the SBK comparison, is there a big leap compared to MotoGP?
"Nothing crazy. SBK is not Moto2, even physically, SBK trains you more, and you come more prepared for MotoGP. I'm here to work and I'll maintain the same approach for Saturday and Sunday, where there will be racing, which I've never done before.

Is there anything different in the garage?
"I know the Ducati method and it's the same. In SBK, when you come back to the pits, you have 5-6 people in front of you, here there are 10-15 people in front of you."

Bulega wasn't that for off going into MotoGP Q2. He's adapted very, very quickly.
