"I would say that we (the riders) a little disappointed that we only had one type of tire is good in almost every track. This year the tire was not working hard for almost all riders, so we continue to use soft tires in each session," said Crash Lorenzo was quoted as saying.
26-year-old rider added that the hard tires currently provided too slippery so it is too risky. This situation makes the rider had no choice but to use soft tires for the race session.
"When we tried hard tires, it was very slippery and not profitable. We want to provide two types of Bridgestone front tires which worked very well for everyone. Example, using soft tires for qualifying and the race hard for, it will be normal. At This time, it did not happen, "he said.
"I think we need a tire with a different type. Ban softness is not too bad, but the hard tire is not currently working. I do not know if this is different, say, quality is the soft tires but today almost all the riders did not like it."
"We need more tires because if you only got one that actually worked, very hard to finish the race," he added.
Complaints about these tires is evidenced by the fact that every rider in the first series in Qatar was forced to use a soft rear tire type. Though the circuit when the temperature was almost 50 degrees Celsius.
Bridgestone own a single supplier for the MotoGP race tires since 2009. While they started participating in this premier race since 2002.
