“Yesterday's test was very important, nowadays with the level of this MotoGP you can't show up at a circuit without ever having ridden there. I did 50 laps and I have to say that the circuit is really fun, it would be nice to stay in the game until the last race. I would be happy if it remained on the calendar for next season too. As far as Jorge Lorenzo's test is concerned, running with the 1 M2019 is not a problem, for the tests to be done it is sufficient."
