We have completed the 11th race of the Moto3 World Championship here in Austria. Both riders started from less than ideal positions on the grid, but they showed strong pace from the beginning and began to gain positions.
Taiyo Furusato faced the challenge of a long-lap penalty, followed by another during the race, which cost him significant time. However, it is positive that he managed to score a point, which is important for the team. Tatchakorn Buasri was competing in the third group and finished 21st. He demonstrated improved pace and was fighting for points, which shows some progress in this race.
Although the results were not perfect, considering the circumstances during the race, we must remain positive. We need to maintain this progression as we look forward to the next race. I would also like to express my gratitude to our riders, sponsors, supporters, and staff for their hard work.

Today, I find myself in a mixed state of emotions. The race was extremely challenging from the start due to the penalties. Although my lap times were strong and the strategy was solid, I cannot be fully satisfied with the result.
I know I could have achieved more, but the bike is performing well, and if we continue working like this, I am confident we will be fighting for podiums in the upcoming races. After my injury, I am pleased with how I feel on the bike, and I am optimistic about achieving better results in the future.

Today's race was a positive experience for me. Although I didn't score points, it was productive as I maintained a competitive race pace and fought within the group for points. Unfortunately, a minor collision caused me to lose ground, but this is part of racing, and such incidents can happen. In the next race, I will give my best effort to finally secure the points we have been working hard to achieve.
