Team NGM Mobile drivers talk before the French Grand Prix

The riders of Team NGM Mobile are ready to face the French Grand Prix, the fourth stage of the 2013 world championship. In the MotoGP class with the FTR-Kawasaki CRTs, Colin Edwards and Claudio Corti will have some technical innovations at their disposal, and they have the say.

“I can't wait to get to Le Mans said Colin Edwards – I can't say that everything was perfect in Jerez, but we picked up a point and we have to start from here to be able to take another step forward. We have some new solutions to try on our FTR. Le Mans is a track that for some reason I have always done well. Let's go!"

“During the test day we developed some solutions that work well and that allow us to have a faster race pace and better driving,” added Claudio Corti – I have good memories linked to Le Mans, a track where I got on the podium last year in difficult weather conditions due to rain. The track is not one of my favourites, I enjoy lapping there and I like the warmth of the French fans. I can't wait to get on the track.”

The Moto2 class riders then spoke

“For the Le Mans weekend I expect something more than the last race – said Simone Corsi – In Jerez we struggled a lot, but Le Mans is a completely different track. We spent two days on the Estoril Circuit so we will bring some new solutions for our bike to the track. I'm confident for this race.”

“The Le Mans Grand Prix is ​​always one of the most difficult due to the weather conditions – said Alex de Angelis – The cold and rain are the always rivals. We will run with a different basic set-up that we tried last week in the tests in Estoril and which we hope can also be adapted to the French track.”

“We are very excited for the Le Mans race. After the Estoril tests last week we can't wait to get going – added Mattia Pasini – With the team and with SpeedUp we have done a good job and we are ready to take a leap forward. We are focused and in shape for Sunday's race and we are confident that we can improve on the result in Jerez which was below our expectations.”

“I'm very focused for the Le Mans race. After the result in Jerez I want to get on the track and work well – he finally concluded Ricky Cardus – I am convinced that the bike can adapt well to this track.”
