De Puniet – 9th: “Certainly we are a bit disappointed because we aimed to get a different placement today. After a very positive qualification I took a bad start from the second row passing the first lap in 12th position: then it was a very hard race for me! The race was very close with many riders doing almost the same lap time and after a few laps I have started to have some issues with the front tyre. In those conditions I could not keep the pace I had yesterday as I have lost the front in several places along the track. However I am still holding the 6th position in the standing and I am sure our bike is acceptable at the moment so we must continue in this direction”.
