We can´t really do too much because Joan and I have very different riding styles, so we looking for some general settings that are a compromise for both of us. I am having to change the way I enter corners. I am still squaring them off too much when I need to carry higher corner speed and make a later apex. When I got out today the track was a little cool so I hope to get some time on a warmer track around noon tomorrow. This bike is really a lot of fun to ride and we are just starting to understand it."

“Over the last two years we have been winning races in the Spanish Nationals, so when I heard that the 250 series was being replaced by Moto2 I was hopeful that I might get a chance, and now I am determined to make the most of this opportunity with Antonio Banderas Racing. This will be an interesting mix of riders. There will be good 125 and 250 two stroke guys with GP experience, a couple of ex-MotoGP and x World Superbike riders and a few riders like me with lots of four stroke experience but new to GPs. I know six of the 17 tracks, so I’ll be running lot of laps on Playstation.”
