It must be said that the last races taught him to put the two days preceding the race into perspective in the face of a alex rins who, like the Phoenix, strives to rise from his ashes: “ this second line is a good result » comments the reigning World Champion. “ Our goal is to get on the podium and finish ahead of Alex Rins ».
« I am convinced that he will be there in the race to fight at the front. This weekend is going well for us so far. I'm not leading, but I feel comfortable and I never stopped progressing on the bike, which is important ».
« I do everything possible to be fast. We are still missing a few tenths, but we are able to claim victory. This is a track where it is complicated to align all the good sectors in the same lap. This is probably my weakness here. I'm still happy with this fifth place and we'll see what happens tomorrow. This is a good place to claim a good final ranking ».
