I’m definitely looking forward to the race at Jerez this weekend. The Spanish crowd, the atmosphere – everything about Jerez is fun and the passion the fans show is amazing. The last test there went quite well for me and I’m looking forward to getting out on track, trying to get a good feeling with the bike and having some fun. It’s round two and I’m aiming to fight back strongly after Qatar. That was a disappointing result but it’s a long championship and I believe I’ve got the skills to get the job done, plus I’ve got a great crew behind me and hopefully me and the team can have a good weekend. I like the track at Jerez. There are a few tight corners and it’s definitely not a circuit dominated by long straights. I like the flow of the layout and coming into the stadium section is probably my favourite part of the circuit – you really have to get into a rhythm to set a good laptime there. The weather at this time of year can be a bit changeable too, so we’ll have to see what it throws at us.
