"My start was not so good, but not so bad either, it's just that the others made a great start. The first laps were very difficult for us; we had zero grip. We were missing something. When Fermin crashed in front of me, I went into the grass and lost 8 or 9 seconds. It was a close one. You don't know what to do in such a situation. You want to keep turning, but the bike and Fermin are coming towards you. I opened the throttle to go into the grass. And then, when I was behind other riders, it was tricky to overtake. I think today, especially in the second part of the race, I could have gone much, much faster had I not been behind rivals."
