“I’m very happy because we were able to put in a really good lap. However, I didn’t feel completely comfortable today. We still have to work on some details I think we can improve, but it’s been a very positive first day in Misano!”

“We still need to make some changes in order to improve the feeling with the bike even further. Today’s been positive, and I feel strong on this track, but we need to find those little improvements so that we can be more competitive”
