Checking our pace this morning, it was not so bad. Riding alone, we know that our strong point is braking. With nobody in front, we brake super hard in Turn 1, 2, 3, 4, and 9, but with people in front of us this is more complicated. As usual in a Sprint, in the first laps when everyone is pushing like it's a time attack to create a gap to the riders behind, we don't have this extra grip. I defended my position a lot, but I made mistakes. After the first lap, I was in a good position, P10, but it was difficult to maintain it. Then there were circumstances that made the Sprint pretty tough, but we did the best we could do today.
