Barely got off their machines at the end of the French Grand Prix, the three drivers on the podium delivered their first impressions to the microphone of the MotoGP official website.
We report their comments here without any formatting.
Jaume Masiá (Red Bull KTM Ajo/winner):
« It's incredible, I really don't know how this scenario could have happened, frankly. I had a lot of fun, even though the situation was not easy to manage after the rain. It's always great to be here, we were very strong and I had very good feelings. We may not have been the fastest, but we were able to keep the situation under control. Last year I broke my wrist here at Le Mans, and therefore the first row in qualifying followed by this victory is a great revenge. We will try to be even stronger at Mugello, where I really like the track. I thank my whole team, we will continue to attack hard. »
Ayumu Sasaki (Sterilgarda Husqvarna Max/second):
« We came really close to victory today, so my first feeling is disappointment. But everything could have ended after the first start when I crashed in the last corner and damaged the bike. The team, however, did a fantastic job of getting it back upright just a minute before the pit lane was open again. Afterwards I just stayed focused and tried to win, but I wasn't close enough in the end. I'm still happy to finish on the podium again. But we will again aim for victory in Mugello, because we are able to do it in all races.

Izan Guevara (Gaviota GASGAS Aspar Team/third):
« It was a crazy race here at Le Mans. I'm happy to get this second consecutive podium in the championship. I had very good feelings in the race, which was a contrast to yesterday in qualifying where my rear tire did not work. I am very happy, for my team, for this third place, and I will try to do even better at Mugello. »
