Bo Bendsneyder hasn’t had the best weekend at Misano. After track conditions have been very changeable throughout the weekend, Bendsneyder faced the race ready to improve his results.

The next race of the Moto2 World Championship will be the Gran Prix of Americas, which will be held from September 30 to October 3 in the United States.

Tom Lüthi

It has been a good day for us. At the beginning of the race, it was kind of tough with some bikes but the feeling was good. We had a dry race, although we would have had a bigger chance if the race was wet. Anyway, track conditions were absolutely ok because we all together did a great job to find a good setup. I could overtake and fight and it was very important to get the feeling which was missing in Aragon. Let’s stay positive for the next race in the United States. Looking forward to have finally overseas race again. I have some good memories there, the last race I was top on the podium.

Bo Bendsneyder

It’s been a really difficult Sunday. Let’s be positive always and keep working, that’s the most important. In two weeks, we are in America, different circuit and different country so we are looking forward to this race. For sure this will pay up.
