“I’m very happy. I made a great start, as I managed to move forward and hunt down the leadinng group. I could see that I had a competitive pace, so I tried to pass my rivals and go out on my own. But with 10 laps to go I began to suffer and everything became much harder. Despite that, I was still able to attack in the last laps. I have to thank Red Bull KTM Ajo, Aki Ajo and everyone who is working non-stop to make this happen. I’m happy to be able to fight for the podium at two races in a row. We’ve taken a big leap forward and we can be there with a strong second half of the season.”
