Barely got off his machine after finishing second in the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix, Pol Espargaro confided in front of the camera of the official website MotoGP.com.
We report his remarks here without any formatting.
Pol Espargaró (Repsol Honda Team):
« I had more or less an idea of my pace in the dry following the private tests held here, but regarding the rear tire I didn't have very good sensations. At one point I was able to pass Miguel Oliveira, but without being able to follow Marc. From then on I found myself isolated, but I just made sure to keep my pace. »
« When there were only seven or eight laps left and I saw that I could finish on the podium, it made me a little tense, so much so that I started to have an arm pump. I couldn't even brake properly anymore, so I'm very happy to finish in second place. To do this double for the team is incredible. »
