The performance of the MotoE 2023
In the first two rounds of 2023, Ferrari broke the previous lap record by more than three seconds. It is remarkable that in both races of the French GP all the participants were faster than the previous lap record of the MotoE. Also, at the Sachsenring, the riders of MotoE were below the previous circuit record, albeit only by a few tenths.
In the first pre-season test, Granado was fastest and broke the official MotoE lap record by half a second in Jerez. In the second test, Granado was fastest again and lowered the official MotoE lap record by three seconds in Barcelona.
At Mugello, the MotoE set its new top-speed record: at the end of the main straight, Jordi Torres reached the speed of 281,9 km/h.
Here is some information on the Ducati V21L: the acceleration data were recorded during a start while the braking data are those recorded at the end of the main straight in Barcelona (turn 1).
