“It’s a fantastic win, but the race was so difficult due to the high asphalt temperature, which caused the bike to slide in the corners. But I enjoyed the race. We had a big fight with Geiger, and I enjoyed it too. In the last lap, I went inside the corner sliding, and Dirk passed me, but I managed to recover and take first position. So, I’m so happy, and I hope we’ll be able to repeat tomorrow. Thanks to my team who gave me a perfect bike, to my fans and sponsors who came here to support me.”
