It’s been nice to find this good grip performance in Misano. It’s helping me improve my riding skills, as in the past, I didn’t do well here. Today, I felt that I was doing better, which is positive. Despite the position, the gap with the top riders is very tight, so that means we are working well. I’m focused on this weekend’s races: I want to keep progressing with our package.

I’ve struggled to find a good feeling on the bike today. The biggest issue is the entry to the corners. In the afternoon session we changed some details and modified the set up of the bike and I felt slightly better, but I still am not riding the way I’d like to. Let’s see how it goes tomorrow.
