T14-15-16 The exit of T14 to T15 and T16 is really nice , nice corners , because it ' s all one corner and you never go straight . There is a lot of sliding in T14 and it is always difficult to get the right traction there . You go to hit the brake in T15 but you don ’ t see the corner . The bike is pushing a lot and it ' s super easy to lose the front and go straight because you don ' t see the turn . T16 - don ’ t listen to your brain so much . It tells you to to release the brake because you ' re too slow - but you are not too slow , you are too fast . Super-slow in T16 , then short acceleration . Yeah , a lot of exit power there you can give us a lot of power .

OFFICIAL PROGRAMME

The Petramina Mandalika International Street Circuit runs to 4.130km in total length . Situated on the idyllic Island of Lombok , and so close to its southern shore , Mandalika was an ambitious idea that is already heading towards its third season as a popular WorldSBK round . The circuit features 17 distinct turns - a hefty number of corners for its length . It ’ s very wide track surface , and a clever layout on a more-or-less flat site , conspire to make it feel like a big circuit . Weather and other less than ideal factors have shown up over the first two WorldSBK race weekends , but in 2023 it should be third time ’ s a charm for one of the newest circuits in the whole world of Motorsports .

T13-14 In T13 and T14 you change direction really fast . In T13 it is too easy to go too fast in the turn and go straight on to cut the get the track there . It ’ s hard to find your ‘ muscle ’ and stay on your line and hit your apex everywhere at this track . It ' s not easy .

T12 This left hander is quite fast also , I think a third gear corner . Even if the track is really wide , you can easily go out of the track at T12 on the exit .

T14

T11 This one is pretty fast on the front in the entry . Near the end of the race it is always a bit tricky because when you have no more front it is super-easy to lose the front there .

In general , the track is really , really wide . You need some time to find your way a little bit to use the track and the space you have on the exit to the corners . Mandalika is a really nice layout but really tricky . You need some time to really find your way there . It ’ s easy to go faster in one turn but then you lose your best position the next one . It is this kind of track .
