Argentina Grand Prix: Somkiat Chantra finishes 19th in Sunday’s race at Termas de Río Hondo

IDEMITSU Honda LCR rider Somkiat Chantra faced a challenging race on Sunday at the Termas de Río Hondo Circuit, ultimately finishing in 19th place:

• The Thai rider encountered a tough race on Argentinian soil, grappling with difficult conditions throughout the event.
• Tyre selection proved to be a critical factor this weekend. Opting for the soft rear tyre, Chantra struggled to maintain consistent performance, which hindered his ability to push during the race.
• The rider also reported experiencing vibrations on the bike, which restricted his capacity to push harder and make progress in the race.

“Today was quite challenging; the feeling was notably different from yesterday. I couldn’t fight for the positions the way I wanted to, and it was difficult to maintain my pace. We’ll analyze the data thoroughly and see what we can do to improve this feeling moving forward.”
