Nicky Hayden, 2’04.752 seg, 43 laps, 239 Km.

This morning wasn’t bad at all and we got on the pace straight away. This afternoon wasn’t that stellar though. I probably wasted too much time on full wets and intermediates. In those conditions, especially on intermediates, is where I need to step up my game because we could get these conditions really easily on Sunday. Once we got going we improved our speed from this morning but we’re quite a way from where we need to be. Parts of the track feel ok but we’ve got to find something more with the tyres if we want to be competitive, otherwise we could be in a little bit of trouble. Maybe the track will clean up and start being kinder on the tyres. It’s quite strange coming here with a completely new surface because we’ve done so many practice laps on the old surface and we were very familiar with it. The surface was quite dirty and slippery this morning to start with. It’s definitely getting a bit better so it would be nice to get some more dry weather tomorrow, put down some rubber and move things forward.
