Yonny Hernandez – Ignite Pramac Racing Team: "I am very happy with how the race went. This weekend I learned a lot from the bike and the team. It's a totally different way to ride but I am adapting quite quickly and I hope to continue in this direction. I'm glad to have been able to enter into the Top Ten and now I would like to work hard starting from the first day of the next round in Phillip Island so I can find immediately the correct setup to be able to maintain a good pace for the weekend and for the race. In general I am very happy and I want to thank the whole team for giving me the opportunity to race in the best possible way."
