Yonny is confident and ready to get back on his bike.
Andrea Iannone (Pramac Racing): "There are three races left and I want to give 110%. In the recent Gp’s I have always been among the top 6 and there I’m not far from an important result. I always think positive and believe that I can do it on this track. The Ducati has did well here during winter testing. I will concentrate on the setting of my GP14.2, which reacts in a different way from the GP14. "
Yonny Hernandez (EnergyT.I. Pramac Racing): "I can’t wait to get back on track to leave behind the incident of Motegi. I am very sorry for the crash, even though it was not my fault. I’m positive and I want to do well in the race."
