I felt confident with the bike and I pushed harder but Nicky came with me,

Maybe the bike is more dangerous, but the passion for the car for me is second to the bike.

The bike gives me a good feeling. Also the engine is very smooth in acceleration so I'm happy. And it's just the first day, we have another two days and we hope to do good work.

I'm happy because the bike worked well. I was confident of a pole position but Nicky set a fantastic lap time ... and second position for tomorrow is not so bad.
