Toni Bou reigns supreme in the Andorra GP

I’m very happy for this perfect weekend. I wanted to win here after the trial last year. To have clinched the win both days is very positive. Yesterday the sections were very tricky, but today in the dry, I picked up far less marks. It’s been a very positive weekend for the championship.
To live here and be able to work and train here is really good. Adam is really on form and here in Andorra he always makes things difficult. We have worked really hard and I have to thank the whole team for all the help that they have given us to get ahead in the championship. We have to not get distracted and continue with this line. Physically I’m feeling much better.

I started quite well and I held it together with a few marks but I picked up a couple of faults in sections 3 and 10, but that wasn’t so bad. But towards the end of the first lap I was pushed for time and got a bit nervous and got a five in the final section, which should have been easy. On the second lap things went better but the ground was dry and the rivals weren’t making any mistakes. In section 12 I had some problems with the non-stop rule and I picked up a five that weighed very heavy on me. In general, I’m very happy with the way that the bike is going. The team has done a fine job and I wish to thank them for that. At the halfway point of the season I’m third and I’m very pleased about that.

I started really badly as I made a few mistakes in a row. Later things got better and I managed to string together various zeros and that encouraged me a lot. I made some mistakes but I finished with some good feelings and with more clear sections. I’m pleased and I’m sure that the podium that we have been chasing for so long will arrive soon.

We come away from Andorra very satisfied. This GP has always been a tough one for us. Toni has ridden fantastically over the two days with two great results that are beginning to make a big difference in the championship. Obviously we are taking nothing for granted and will take each race as it comes, section by section. As far as the other riders go, they have done well. Jaime finished with two fourth places but just can’t get onto the podium! Fujinami is fighting harder than ever in far better physical shape than during the past two years. Things didn’t turn out quite right for him today but he had a good race yesterday. Once again I have to thank the team for the great work that they’ve done: the riders have been great but without the team behind them everything would be that much harder.
