I did a good start but for the Lorenzo and bautista crash the other riders pushed me out of the track and I rejoined in last position, so I had to force the pace and I’ve got some positions but I’ve lost too much time from Pasini and I haven’t got my target that was the tenth position. My TR003 in these day was better and better, my team did a great job enabling me to get this good result”.
