 Be first to comment this story
 Excellent result for the team Pramac d’Antin which obtained the top ten with both his riders in Istanbul’s race.
Alex Barros protagonist of an absolute perfect race, lost the podium for very few second, qualifying in fourth position; the race was portend too hardly from the beginning when some riders fall down hindering the track, but fortunately the Brazilian was able to go on continuing his fast race to reach the head’s group.
Hofmann after to be fall down in the warm up wasn’t in his good condition, anyway he cached the right spirit to continue to obtain the nineth position overtaking Valentino Rossi just two laps at the end.
Thanks to this wonderful Sunday, the team will face with deep motivation the tomorrow optional test, determined to have good race in Shangai too.
Alex Barros – 4th:
I’m very happy because this one was a fantastic week end for us. We started with some difficulties but we ended very well! We work too hardly during the past two days making some changes at my DUCATI GP7 set-up to find the best solution that able me to be fast. Inspite of starded from penalizing position, I made good start that was very important for my result. It was a wonderful race for me, I had deep struggle with the some other riders and I was near to the podium. I’m displeased about it, but Loris was very determined, when I overtook him, he push at his maximum leave me behind. I would you thanks my team for the good work done, Bridgestone e Ducati for the competitive material they given us and Pramac that given me all his confidence. This result is strong important, give us the right strength to go on.
Alex Hofmann – 9th:
I’ m very satisfied for this day. It was bad started with my fall during the warm-up, but at the end I done a good race. In reason of my fall, I wasn’t at my 100%, I have soft ache rib that make me difficult to respire, certainly anything really grievous, but it conditioned me. During the race I was always near the head’s group, unfortunately I could be there, but I’m equally satisfied; this in Istanbul was my best race! I’m so grateful with all my Team that made precious work and I want to thanks everyone hoping in a good race in China too.
Luis d’Antin – Tem Principal:
I think I can be really satisfied after this race. First of all I happy for my Team that made excellent work. Both Barros and Hofmann wasn’t in their best condition, the first one because of deep flu, and the second for his fall in the morning, but all given their best. Barros struggled to the end obtaining a very important fourth position and Hofmann showed to have the right spirit to well done. The last period wasn’t very good for the Team, a day like this is deep important for us. I want to thanks Bridgestone and Ducati for the technical material and all the sponsor that believe in our project.
