Yamaha Movistar racer, Maverick Vinales urged his team to make improvements. While in MotoGP Catalunya, last week, Vinales weakness was clearly visible.
The Spanish MotoGP rider had trouble starting a good start. He was thrown into sixth position after the green lights turned on.
"I do not know what to do, I start like training but others can be faster," said Vinales, as reported by Motor Sport.
"When I do wheelie, all the racers overtake me from different angles.The first lap that I live must be thrown into the trash," he added.
Vinales also urged Yamaha to make improvements for the bike. He wants Yamaha to do the things given his former team, Suzuki on MotoGP 2016.
"It seems (I) the only Yamaha who has a problem (bad start), I really do not understand."
"Anyway, in 2016, I always start riding with other manufacturers (Suzuki) .They (Yamaha) need to give me the possibility to start well and then it will be another MotoGP race," Vinales said.
The fight with Zarco-Rossi
Furthermore, Vinales also tells about his exciting duel against teammate, Valentino Rossi and tech 3 rider Yamaha, Johann Zarco.
