hello everyone and welcome to the third
video of the testing in Cartagena that I
did two months ago as you probably
remember from the previous videos we had
problems on the motorbike and we
struggled for two days to find out what
was wrong and today we finally discover
which problem Miami are one has today we
have the punishment which is the race
simulation and it works as follow
session one qualifying session to warm
up session three polygem into ten laps
and then in the afternoon have three
practices so let's go
hi guys third day heating comes again up
with my Yamaha r1 in the last two days I
always use the letter K 1 which is the
harder and now I went with the K 0 in
the rear which is supposed to have more
gravy and in fact it has more grip the
thing is that I wasn't happy with the
setup because in his corner I felt no
grip in the front and the bike kept
going wide and if I try to leave more or
to load more to turn I feel like I would
lose the front then from mid corner to
corner exit when I tried to accelerate a
little bit in order to use the the
traction to turn the bike I couldn't
really turn the bike so I accelerated
more at the rear so we need to change
the setup a little bit to make the bike
work better with these new tires which
is the first time I use so idea 138
point six which is 1.4 seconds lower
than
i-i didn't felt good so now we modified
the rear to allow the bike to lose a
little bit of grip
corner matter
[Music]
so after the modification I did the same
lab thing but we are still not good with
the setup we fixed the part where I
start to accelerate now I felt that I
was losing a little grip on the rear and
the bike was turning much better
but I still struggle the exit of the
corners because when I accelerate to
100% the bike goes wide and I still
struggle I'll enter in the corner I'm
always going wide I'm always missing the
apex I don't feel good on the front
that's probably because we we are too
hard in the front and in the corners
where you must not break this we're just
need to release the throttle I need to
brake to load the front because I feel
the bike to I in the front so we will
lift the bike a little bit on the rear
who has corner better we will put a
softer spring in the front to allow more
load transfer when you close the gas
[Music]
okay we are ready to start in the first
position we have the instructure which
is under adds up but that now will leave
the track so I am in fifth position for
opponents in front of me they are faster
but I'll try to do my best
[Music]
man look at how much I lose in the
strike and Luka is with the street bike
not only I losing this straight but that
the bike will is like crazy
[Music]
oh look I went white oh my god here is
so much now I can pass him in the inside
I can put myself in the front now I have
to prove and keep him behind
[Music]
the thing is I still cannot make it turn
you see as soon as I start to accelerate
I lose the rear which is weird because
now I have put the metal lkx
which is a super soft tire and I feel it
great I feel great grip on the rear
really that the tire is stuck in the
ground the problem is that when I try to
accelerate exit in the corner I feel
great great degree and then I lose it
and I'm starting to think that some kind
of electronic problem that that's the
only thing I I can imagine because the
the setup is the same as last time the
bike is the same the rider is the same
[Music]
hey man give me back my stickers
[Music]
oh my god lunch oh my god oh my god he
went in the gravel
oh my god I hope you didn't crash that
was bad
okay okay stop guys stop guys red flag
red flag red flag
equality for power
whispering taranta we do a tragedy
Murdock H I attack go to my program in
the restaurant watch mr. Kornegay Lanza
to score no drawstring tie is a role of
a John collee out of the Eren Mikasa qy
the man
they are cool I got rap a scintilla
prigioni answer there's a comparator
Kappa 0 da drumettes Eldorado I'm Korra
me no present Calabria we need for to
make one and to do it you know mean no
prima zero
I love to tease Mike the past season was
awesome and I was expecting to have a
wonderful season this year but then
grown a virus stroke and we are all
stuck home ok there is nothing we can do
about it so back to racing
nine laps to go let's push
[Music]
holy Sh you see in the mix it farts and
in the breakings I gain a lot but as
soon as I have to exit I love them
and then you see how every time I exit
the corner the bike goes white it's
going like in the park
[Music]
okay today the main straight will be my
death III will go backwards like
electrons do they will all pass me
you'll see
[Music]
[Applause]
user story in the breaking I game
and in the exit I loop
[Music]
yeah please you all come No
[Music]
max we're going you cannot pass outside
there
[Music]
now you can pass
[Music]
ah thank God another red flag it was it
was a nightmare
[Music]
it was really frustrating knowing that
in many spots you are faster but then
you lose everything on the straight
where there is nothing you can do so we
had to find the problem at all costs at
this point it was clear that the problem
was with the electronics so we used the
afternoon to do a thousand tests and
finally we discover what the problem was
the problem is that the bike struggled
to turn and in exit went wide and on a
straight was slow and kept wheeling was
due to the electronics basically the
electronics were cutting too much and
this created two problems problem number
one now with the 1000 you need to use
the throttle in a special way to go fast
and I will make a detailed video about
that once the quarantine ends but
basically when you are in mid corner and
you start to accelerate instead of
pointing the throttle a bit in constant
all you have to do is to start to
accelerate and then increase the
acceleration gradually while you put the
bike up
why is that because the more you
accelerate the more the chain pulls the
rear tire close to the front one making
the bike shorter making it more agile
and easier to turn moreover the more gas
you give the more dirty our wheel spins
the more the bike drifts a little bit
and turns better to corner fast in fact
if you notice when you look at the
pictures or videos from behind you see
that the rear tires draw some long black
line of rubber on the ground this is
because the real little spinning so in
my case what happened it happened that
since the first day the traction control
was cutting too much this meant that
when I was in mid corner and I tried to
accelerate to start drifting a little
bit and corner fast the traction was
coming so the rear tire was not spinning
and this led to two different outcomes
either the rear tire kept stuck there so
the bike started to accelerate but he
went wide like if it was under steering
[Music]
or realizing the derriere was stuck on
the ground ie accelerate too much and
lose the rear so either too much grip or
no grip and for example if you look at
this video you see I'm exiting from last
corner and I am NOT leaving the black
line the rear tire is not spinning so
the first day I was riding at my limit
losing the rear or going wide and I was
low so I said ok why am i slow maybe I
should break later and harder so I
started to break it later and harder but
when I go back to the pit lane the fork
reached the limit so they hardened it it
but this led me not to be able to corner
so you see how one stupid problem in the
electronics led to a cascade of other
problems and other troubles the point is
that these three days for us were some
kind of shakedown go back on track to
train after three months and considered
it the 2020 was not ready that the bike
that we used was exactly the same day we
use less time in katakana the setup was
the same the weather was almost the same
the rider was the same the team was the
same the tyres were pretty similar
because from Metzler to Pirelli there is
no huge difference we didn't bring the
telemetry with us which who could have
been able to detect the problem
immediately and then we have problem
number two the bike wheel is too much
now every time I have a problem while
writing I start thinking that I'm doing
something wrong so if the bike wheel is
too much I must do something to prevent
it so I started to change the back
position lift the saddle use the rear
brake push with the legs push the front
to try to keep it down but you can't
realize that if you have 200 horsepower
no matter how much strength you put in
it if the bike decides to wheelie
it will will and you will just waste
energy and that's why I got so much
tired during these two days because I
was fighting with the bike on the street
and obviously the buy was winning so
given that the bike kept wheeling what
we said is maybe that the power is too
aggressive let's reduce it which is
logical now if the bike is too
uncontrollable
you have to you know but this was the
wrong way because if you cut the power
while exiting the corner as soon as you
put the bike straight and you get full
power the bike starts oh really and once
it will eat the electronics cut and it
goes back down and then it bounces and
goes back up so it might seem a paradox
but the more you cut the more ignorant
the bike becomes so we said okay now
let's reduce the traction control and
give it full power
[Music]
[Applause]
I went back on track I did two laps I
came back to the pit lane and I said the
bike now it's going slow really the bike
was smooth the bike was too easy to ride
I felt like he was going slow and then
we look at the top speed eight kilometer
can you imagine that a bike with more
power and less electronic to me felt
easier and more calm this is because if
you have the electronic that keeps
cutting it's like having a lion then you
try to keep still with chains and the
lion wants to get himself free okay so
you start fighting instead if you keep
the lion free without chains you don't
see a fight and now this makes it clear
white for the whole season I had the
bike that kept wheeling on that's right
and kept losing against the modern bikes
I can't imagine that I did the whole
season with this problem but we still
don't understand why because my bike has
same exact electronic configuration than
the other bikes but those configuration
on my bike don't work in fact now we are
racing with some slightly different
parameters than the other bikes but this
is the big mystery of the electronics we
don't know I'm kind of annoyed after
these three days because I wanted to
push I wanted to improve I wanted to
return home with a good result with a
good improvement with a good laughing
money instead I just fought against a
ghost problem and I did not improve but
you know this is racing now we just hope
that this shitty quarantine and soon and
I hope to be able to go back on track
thank you guys for watching and see you
in the next videos bye bye
