With only two weeks between race 10 (Portugal) and the 11^th round at Magny Cours there's no time to relax for Chaz.

Upgrades to the Ducati Panigale R were implemented and tested directly after Portimao to optimise the Welshman's attack on the upcoming French track.

Team Aruba.it have seen impressive wins at Magny Cours in the past with Davies achieving a double win in the 2016 Championship.

..."The track is quite good for our package, but that also applies to our main rivals. In the last round we struggled a bit, but we understood why and I expect us to be much closer in France and put up a fight. The weather is always a point of contention there, and it's quite unpredictable...We'll just do our homework and try get the job done on track" - Chaz Davies

Action starts on Fridays free practise with races over the weekend, 29th Sep & 1st Oct
