This has obviously been a mega-race for me. My start wasn’t great but I managed to get a good place in the first corner and I stayed behind Di Meglio. Then, he and some other riders went wide in a corner and I passed them. Pasini had opened a little gap, but then I was behind Gadea and I pushed hard until I got closer, though always a bit far behind. I only managed to get really close towards the end of the race and I know that I could have been fighting with them. The bike went perfect today, so I’ve been able to keep Pesek behind me. When Pesek passed me, I had to go a little wide in the corner. I don’t know whether his tyres were in better shape than mine or he was just faster than me, because he managed to escape. Then I thought that a place on the podium was enough for me and that we’ll have the chance to make it better some other day.
