Something snapped in the other under when they made the first podium: how do you see it now from Misano onwards?

“Arriving on the podium gives you that extra confidence to face the next races and also to show others that you are there too. But the goal itself is not to finish ahead of the others, it is to improve more if themselves and to always give their best! “
