Alvaro – Motegi; Post-Race Quote…

“The backmarkers were a problem for me. They closed the corner and it was impossible after that to catch Marco with three laps to go. The race was very hard for me, I started from far back and at the beginning it was difficult to pass riders on the brakes. After this I could pass and my feeling got better, and I tried to push at my hardest.
I was able to catch Marco, but he got a good distance between us when we got to the backmarkers. Second is not so bad, but we lost some points which is important for the championship.”
