            That was such a tough race. We had to use the set-up from last year, because I 
only had six or seven laps on the two-stroke yesterday. You really need that 
fine tuning ... the tyres are different now, and the temperature and other 
things. I decided on the two-stroke this morning. It seems there are still many 
small problems with the four-stroke, so we thought there would be a better 
chance of finishing on the two-stroke. It was hard even to get 15th. It's very 
difficult to overtake any four-strokes, and I also had a problem with the clutch 
in the last five laps. It wouldn't disengage, and backshifting without a clutch 
was really horrible. I think I did the best I could today, and I must thank my 
whole team - they have been working very hard on both types of machine this 
weekend.
