You Look At Moto3, The Races Are

How Do Ferrari Know What I'm Doing Next Year When I Don't Know What I'm Doing Next Week?

Motivation Is The Key. More Than Training, More Than Experience Or Age, Motivation Counts. You Have To Ask Yourself: 'why Am I Racing?' I Race Because I Like It, Because I'm Really Enjoying It. I Like To Set Up My Bike And Ride It On Track. After 20 Years In The Gps I'm Still Highly Motivated. Everything Else Is A Consequence.

You Need To Realise That, If You Want To Go On, You Have To Work Hard. If You Dwell Too Much On Your Past Successes And Say "well, I Have Won Nine World Titles And More Than 100 Races", You'd Rather Stay Home. The Sport, Your Rivals, The Tyres, Your Motorcycle, Everything Changes So Instead You Need To Work More To Be Stronger. If You Don't, You're Finished.

I Have Always Challenged Myself And It's Also Important To Learn From The Rivals. Every Rider Has His Own Style, And You Have To Count On Some Elements That Cannot Be Changed. On The Contrary, The Bike Or The Tires Can Change And It's Important To Adapt Yourself. It's Up To The Rider To Understand What He Can Change And How Much He Can Adapt.

We Have The 2004 M1 Here For Reference, Which Is Useful. It Worked Well Here Last Year; We Won The Race And Always Did Fast Lap Times So It Will Be Interesting To Compare It To The New Bike And It Will Help Us To Understand Which Parts Have Improved.
