“I didn't feel bad, but we need to take a step forward. I'm happy because with a tire with a casing that shouldn't fit our bike, we're there. I did the time with the first tire and I'm pretty good. Now we have to rest assured, this season we have always been strong, even if not like today, we are very strong in pace. Now we have to stay calm and take a step tomorrow. With tranquility and serenity we will have the opportunity to fight for the top.”
