Second podium finish of the season for Ogura

Both riders did a good race here in Austria. The race was challenging because of the hottest conditions on the track. Ogura suffered a grip issue that prevents him from maintaining the first position but managing to finish third. Chantra had a good pace, the same as the top riders, but in the first five laps, he lost a lot of time due to some contacts with other contenders. Anyway, both did their best. Let's keep this momentum to be better in Catalunya. 

At the beginning of the race, after a good start, I was behind Dixon. When I overtook him, I saw that my pace wasn't bad. But from the middle of the race to the end, I struggled in some parts of the track, which cost me a bit, losing contact with Vietti and Acosta to finish third. I expected a little bit more from myself. If I finish third, but I can be with them, I could be happy. But the gap has too much; my pace wasn't strong. In any case, I'm delighted about how the team worked this weekend. 

I did a good start from P5, but at the first chicane, I lost some positions, and a rider passed me, broking my line. I made some mistakes trying to overtake, and the group was too far when I did it. I pushed to recover the gap, but the tire dropped significantly after ten laps. At this moment, I decided to manage the tire to finish the race in a good P5. I want to congratulate my teammate on his podium. See you in Catalunya!
