MotoGP: Dani Pedrosa “At Phillip Island to forget Motegi”

Dani Pedrosa arrives at Phillip Island with the intention of making up for the Motegi race, where he had only been competitive towards the end of the race. The Honda rider is ready to fight for second place in the championship and will have to watch out for his compatriot Jorge Lorenzo (winner of the last two races) and our Valentino Rossi. The word is up to him.

“The race in Japan was a bit frustrating so I'm looking forward to getting to Phillip Island and putting it behind me. Obviously we tested there at the beginning of the year, but we will have to see what the conditions are like today, a few months later. The goal is obviously to finish second in the championship and I will push 100% to achieve this goal. The track layout is exciting, it's a lot of fun to drive there and the races are always fun, but let's hope we don't have a repeat of last year's problems!” (when Bridgestone, given the anomalous tire consumption, decided together with the safety commission to divide the race in two, with runs of 10 laps, ed.).
