A race like Sunday’s was needed after the crash at Silverstone and the bad hit in Saturday’s sprint. We start the weekend very well, with a good driving feeling and a new track record. In Saturday’s Q2, however, some smearing on the good lap penalized me a bit. I know that starting in P7 is a lot of trouble if you want to remount, and the risk of contact at the start is much more. In fact, my Sprint lasts one turn, and I immediately find myself on the ground and remedy two good blows to the shoulders. I arrive bruised in the pits, not only physically but also a little bit morally. But I know I can have a great race on Sunday, despite the grid position and not collecting data in the sprint. On Sunday morning, Saturday’s beating kicks in but I manage to run without painkillers. The adrenaline is strong, and I am charged. At the start everything runs smoothly, I keep the position, I manage to come back up to P4, then I find myself davandi Alez Marquez: I knew that the last 10 laps would be tough and I did my best to conserve and manage the tire. My tactic was elastic: I gained, I lost, I let the tire get air, and then I tried and it went well. I was very strong on the braking, and when I got in front I felt better and opened the gap a little bit in the finish. A great race, a great Sunday, with Vale in the pits helping us so much and Celestino’s great win in moto2. And the just reward to my team and everyone who follows me. See you next time!
