This was a pretty good result. There were also not that many crashers in front of me, so, for me, it was a really good race, considering how we're going. We are less than 5s from fifth place, so this is really positive. The feeling was better than I expected, to be honest. We know what we're missing, but we're working on it, and I think that today it was quite a great race. It was nice: I saw Bezzecchi and Oliveira fighting in front of me on the last laps. I knew how difficult it is to stop the bike in Turn 1 and, considering how close they were fighting, I said 'Okay, they are going to go wide'. I decided to brake super early to carry speed and I overtook them. I could also keep the position until the end, so I think we were clever, and I think how I raced was nice. We are going step by step: in Le Mans the pace was good and here it was great. Hopefully we can make more good steps in Mugello and at the private Valencia test afterwards. I feel like we're making progress, I feel like we're seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, which is great.
