"I arrive in Austria after three weeks of holidays which, for me, weren’t really holidays at all, since I trained a lot to take part in a rather demanding cycling race, the ‘Purito’. Physically, I feel in incredible shape and ready to take on the Austria–Hungary doubleheader. I ended the first part of the season with a good race in the Czech Republic and I want to start from there again. The Red Bull Ring is a track I quite like, and I’m convinced we can have a good weekend, trying to chase that podium that, so far, has always slipped away from me on this track."
