In the third consecutive victory of the Murcian, which was also in the Spanish GP, demonstrated two of his great virtues: the temperance and intelligence to read the races, and an ability to manage braking that recalls his idol, the mythical Kevin Schwantz.

The best thing has been to forget everything and focus on my work with the team “, admitted the new great jewel of Spanish motorcycling.
