It's been ages since we last saw Dani Pedrosa at such a party. Until then sad sire of a Márquez to whom he holds the candle at HRC, he seems to see the light at the end of the tunnel. We wish him all the bad with this second place at the end of the first day in Misano.

New Michelin front tires, summer temperatures and a few changes made during testing in Brno, and here we are at last again Dani Pedrosa at the forefront. It's about time and it's reassuring, except for Yamaha who see a new protagonist and ally of the one who needs to be caught up in the championship: Marc Márquez.

The fact remains that it is in front of his leader that Dani has positioned himself this time, and 65 thousandths of the first place won by Pol Espargaro. For the Spaniard who won in 2010, things are finally off to a good start: “ we got off to a good start and I am sincerely happy with it. It's important to stay focused on what's next. We had the opportunity to try all the tire configurations. And the track conditions were ideal ».

« After the Brno tests, we found something in the settings that suits me well. We must continue in this direction, little by little. We saw positive things at Silverstone, and now here. We gradually gain confidence. You have to stay in this dynamic, set a good pace and make the right tire choices for the race. ". The machine Pedrosa seems to be back on the market!
