Barely dismounted from his Aprilia of the satellite Trackhouse team after finishing second in the sprint race of the Australian Grand Prix MotoGP 2025 at Phillip Island, Raúl Fernández spoke in front of the cameras of the official website MotoGP.com with the joy of having led the race and having secured a second consecutive podium in the sprint race.
We report his remarks here without any formatting.
🎤 Raúl, a second consecutive podium in the sprint race. It was a very different race to manage: you led for many laps. Did you think you still had some left in the tank?
Raúl Fernández: "No, I was very relaxed on the bike, I tried not to make any mistakes. I saw that Marco was coming back with a very good pace. I tried to give my maximum and when I saw that I couldn't follow Marco, I just tried to survive because on this kind of track you have to survive with the rear tire [laughs] but whatever happens I'm very happy. Thanks to my team, to my family, I think it's very important for all of us. We'll try to continue on this path because since Mandalika we've been getting very good results so we'll try to enjoy the moment."
