VALENCIA, SPAIN VOL. 52 ISSUE 46 NOVEMBER 17, 2015 P49 ahead of us with the new electron- ics, because it is very different to what we had before," Marquez said. "The area we must improve the most is exiting corners, rather than engine braking and the anti- wheelie which I didn't feel was much different—although we are still using a very basic setup. We are trying out many things and the problem is that it is a very slow process to find a good base." Teammate Dani Pedrosa com- pleted a total of 109 laps with a best time of 1:31.681 to place third fastest, but like Marquez, was not exactly happy with the perfor- mance of the new ECU. "The first feeling we have is that they (the ECU) are very much in the preliminary stage and certainly a step backwards," Pedrosa said. "Right now the electronics are still giving us a lot of problems and are difficult to use. We have to work hard to understand it and see what parameters we should concentrate on more. It's also a job for the rider, because you must gain experience in order to understand what you have and what you don't, compared with the previous version." ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
