Starting from fifth position is ok, though obviously I would have preferred to be on the front row. We continued to work on the set-up of the bike in both sessions and I was able to improve my speed from yesterday. The set-up for the race is just about there, though we still have to make the final decision on the race tyre, so we’ll use the warm-up tomorrow morning for this. My qualifying runs went quite well – the first one was calm and not so quick and on the second one I was pushing more and improved the time quite a lot. For the race I hope to be fighting at the front, though some of the other riders are looking pretty fast so it may be difficult. I’m on the middle of the second row so the track may be a little bit dirty there – still, I’ll be aiming to get a good start in the race tomorrow.
