Barely got off their machines, the three Moto2 riders who finished on the podium at the Spanish Grand Prix in Jerez spoke in front of the site's camera MotoGP.com.

We report their comments here without any formatting.

Luca marini (1st): “I'm very happy, we had a good pace and we did a very good job from Wednesday and from Friday, during free practice. I drove a lot in racing conditions with the racing tires and saw how many laps they lasted. I did the same strategy in the race but the pace was much slower. I am very happy with this result. I think it would have been the same in Qatar if I hadn't had the problem with my front tire. I monitored Tetsuta's pace from the first days because he was competitive. It's important to win races because it's fantastic. »

Tetsuta nagashima (2th): “I know it’s a very tough season, I understood that from the start. I tried to attack from the start to stay in front and I tried throughout the race to get back on Marini. But four or five laps from the finish I changed my mindset and said to myself “ok, I'm going to be content with my place”. But I'm very happy and I really like this feeling. »

Jorge Martín (3nd): “The race was really hard for me. From the start I had a lot of problems with the front. It was a bit like in Qatar, I had a tendency to lose the front. The tire was getting very hot so I let the others go. When I saw starting the last lap that I had a second lead [on Sam Lowes] I told myself that it was going to do it. »
