“Today was difficult. This morning it was bad so we tried to improve the bike setup and in FP2 it felt much better. We just need to do some small changes for tomorrow to be ready. I felt comfortable in both wet and dry conditions. I would prefer some rain because I wasn’t so lucky in the dry the past two years but we will see, I don’t care about the weather conditions. I hope to achieve better results this year. Last year was disappointing but this year I’m feeling much stronger and also for my home round, I will do my best to collect lot of points and catch up with the guys at the front. It’s very special to race here, in Czech Republic.”
