"MotorLand Aragon is one of my favorite tracks of the calendar so I was hoping for a bit more today to be honest. We had a good set up during the Misano Test but today the bike was not quite the same and I struggled finding confidence on the bike. We will work tonight to try preparing a bike which will suit me better."

"The position is not great today but I was slightly disturbed by Alex Marquez and lost time during a good lap, which I think could have placed us in the top 20 at least. We made some positive changes following the Misano Test which I am happy about. We will continue working tomorrow and try getting a good grid position. Let's continue pushing."
