Rider – MotoGP
“It’s a good feeling to be back riding with the rest of the MotoGP field, this helps to keep you sharp as a test rider and is also very beneficial to be on track with the other bikes. Like always, in the Test Team we are working on our things and have to have one eye on the race weekend and one eye on the future. We have started well and now we need to keep making more steps on Saturday and Sunday.”
