"It was not a great start to the season, but last year it was even worse. This does not mean that this is the location where we want to be. We want to fight for the podium and Jerez I believe it is the right track for bonfires. There are more sick, are in perfect condition, I trained and I believe that there will be no more excuses. " 

"Valentino has won two races and than we got more. But it could be worse. We must improve, be quick and consistent in the race, because when you're slow and you have small problems fight for fourth to fifth place. So I have to be faster to fight for the podium.
