The next MotoGP race will be Misano. My home grand prix.
-
For me, Misano is special
-
Because the first time I ride a motorcycle in a track was in Misano.
-
And it's 10 kilometres from my house.
-
You start to dream to become a rider, yes.
-
The track is difficult because it's very physical
-
Because you have a lot of hard braking.
-
At the same time, You have the Curvone and all the fast part
-
That I think is the only corner during the season that you do with sixth gear.
-
So more than 270 kph!
-
So every time you arrive in that corner
-
You say 'difficult'!
-
Usually, Misano you need on the right hard part
-
Because you have a lot of corners on the right.
-
On the left a little bit less
-
Because Misano has always a bit of lack of grip.
-
We try a new softer tyre
-
That improves a lot the grip on the edge.
-
You can go a lot faster in the corner
-
And it's very important for our bike.
-
Plus here rain is very difficult
-
Because Misano is very, very slippery.
-
So you need to be very careful.
-
The atmosphere is special.
-
Because I have a lot, a lot of fans. A lot, a lot of yellow around.
-
The image is fantastic because it's always full of people.
-
So for me I was very happy to win in Misano.
-
It's always the same emotion.
