“Today was another challenging day. Track conditions were difficult this morning, but they improved as it dried out for qualifying. The feeling was much better then, although the result didn’t match up to it. Despite this, I’m very happy with our work and with how the bike feels ahead of the race. I’m positive we’ll be able to put in a good race tomorrow”
“I’m happy with today’s work. This morning, knowing the track conditions, we didn’t want to take any risks, so we waited and only did five laps. Qualifying was difficult. I tried to push hard alone, but I couldn’t put in a good final lap because I lost a lot of time in the last sector. We will give it our all tomorrow”
