Toni Bou, leader of the World Championship after the French GP

It was a very difficult day, continuing with yesterday's physical discomfort and the pain in my back that caused cramp in my right arm. I was not happy for most of the day and it was quite hard. I think the balance of the weekend is positive considering the condition that I found myself in. It will be a very difficult championship for us as the trials are very close together. Even so, we will fight to be at our best for the next one.

Today I didn’t start the first lap very well, but by the second I felt more comfortable with the bike and I was able to recover enough points to be fighting near the top. On the third and final lap, I started out well, but I made a lot of mistakes and I couldn't pull back. I finished sixth in the end, but I know this is not where I should be. During the lockdown we worked very hard, but it is not the same as spending six hours a day riding the bike. I'm sure everything will be better next time. We will fight to be in the top three.

We have not started the world championship so badly, but today Toni suffered a lot with the physical discomfort he has. The most worrying thing about this is that we hardly have time to recover between trials. It is not very serious, but it is very difficult to win if you are not 100% physically with such strong opponents in great shape. Now, we have to work to be in as good shape as possible for the next trial in Spain. Fujinami also struggled a lot but was not able to get to where he should be. Over these two days we have seen that this year there is a very high level and we will have to work hard to stay ahead. We will keep battling to do so in the next trial.
