I’m happy to finish the race and take some points, it’s a good way to start the championship. We still have many races to go, but starting the season with this level of control is positive.

I tried to manage the situation from the beginning and did my best considering the huge tyre drop. I managed to bring it to a close because if I had pushed harder, I probably wouldn’t have finished.

I believe in the work we’re doing, the bike is performing well, we have a good base, and we just need to adjust a few small things.

It was a good race, I’m super happy. I fought with Enea, and it was fun. The tyre dropped off quite a lot, so I struggled a bit, but overall it was really good.

At some point I was alone pushing, because after 12 laps, the tyre degradation was significant, but it was still a positive race for me.

We’ve started the season with high motivation, and this is a learning process. I can’t wait to do more races, I’ve had so much fun this weekend!

Overall, it’s been a positive weekend, and we leave Brazil with high motivation for the next race in seven days, in Texas.

We enjoyed the weekend; it was super busy, but everything went well!

Today, the start was difficult as I lost many positions, that was the main challenge, and I had to make a bit of a comeback, which was tough.

We had a good pace, and that’s important. The key thing is that we scored points and learned a lot.

Thanks to everyone supporting me!

Another rider went to the inside of a rival in Turn 8, and this one had to go wide. I was feeling well and doing a good job, but due to that situation, I had to go in knowing we needed to change direction. He tried to come back, and at the moment of contact my bike fell in Turn 9. It was a racing incident,

I don’t complain, these things happen. It was a consequence of what happened at that moment. In any case,

I was feeling good and we could have taken a solid result. I decided to continue to gather information, and I was able to be fast even though we were far behind, so it was useful to understand many things.

The past two weeks have been both enjoyable and challenging at times, but we are doing a good job and continuously improving. Thanks to everyone!

I gave my best to secure the best possible result, and today it was 7th. The start was tough, but I managed to defend my position and fight with my rivals. Our pace was better than I expected, honestly, it was very decent, and I’m happy about that.

Of course, I was aiming for the podium, but with five laps to go I felt a big drop in the rear tyre. In the end, I crossed the line in 7th, which is still a positive result. Tomorrow’s test will help us improve in some areas and be better prepared for the next races.

We know it’s difficult to overtake in MotoGP, and even more so at this track. The race wasn’t bad, I was there, following the factory Hondas. With 10 laps to go, I started to struggle with the tyre wear.

Tomorrow it will be important to try some different setup options and see where we can improve.

It was a tough weekend. It wasn’t the performance we wanted.

The little crash on Saturday morning affected my confidence, and once you lose a bit, you lose it everywhere. During today’s race, I tried to stay on the bike, but I wasn’t competitive and I struggled.

Overall, the positive is that when I have a good feeling, we can see that something great is possible with this bike.

The target is to repeat the strong performances we can achieve when we feel good. We’ll try again in Barcelona!

Today was more difficult than yesterday. I was there fighting, but it was difficult to keep the pace. I made a mistake at Turn 9. I tried to catch the group, but I went wide and ended up crashing.

After yesterday’s race, I was quite happy, so now it’s just a matter of continuing like this and improving race by race.

Today’s race was quite difficult because it is never easy to know that other riders have crashed and then have to mentally reset. I tried to isolate myself and maintain my concentration, and in the end we secured a good result.

Most importantly, all the riders involved in the crashes, including my teammate, are okay.

I knew the race was going to be challenging after not feeling at my best this morning. I tried to maintain a consistent pace and make it to the finish, but it was really difficult.

I did my best, learned a lot from riding behind strong rivals and battling with them, and we secured a top-10 finish in Sunday’s race, which is important. We’re working really well, and we need to keep going in this direction.

It was probably the most physically demanding race I've ever done.

I'm happy with the result because we understand our current situation, but the lap times show that I'm making progress and getting more comfortable on the bike. It's been tough, but I'm pleased with the work we're doing.

The racing spirit is still there despite the time I've spent away. The important thing is that we're improving, understanding the bike better and better, and taking positive steps forward every time we go out on track.

Today I tried to handle the situation as best as I could, and I think we did a good race.

Maybe we made the wrong choice with the tyre, going for the medium, as it wasn't the ideal option. Even so, we managed to finish in a good position and with a consistent pace.

I'm proud of the work we've done this weekend.

It was a long race, and I'm pleased to have finished it.

I really enjoyed the first eight laps, but then I started struggling with the front tyre. I had some good battles during those opening stages, which was fun.

After that, I had to drop back a little to manage the tyre situation and then just kept going.

Over the final seven laps, I started to lose power, which made things even more demanding. I think I could have gone faster, but the important thing was to bring the bike home.

Both the team and I are happy with the outcome, and we're already looking forward to Assen.

It was a tough race.

We chose the medium tyre because it was the safest option and, after yesterday’s crash, it was important to make sure we reached the finish.

The final stages of the race were difficult, and I focused on managing the tyre and bringing it home. Considering the circumstances, we did a good job and managed to score points.

In Assen, we’ll aim to take another step forward and be back fighting again.

We made a good start, but I had contact with another rider in the first corner. He pushed me wide, and the left wing on my bike was broken. From that moment on, it was really difficult, but I managed to finish the race with what I had.

The wings are really important on these bikes, so today we just had to survive the situation. Now we'll get some rest and come back ready for Sachsenring!

Overall, we can be pleased with the performance. I gained more track speed, improved the feeling with the bike and, most importantly, got more valuable track time.

I’ll always prefer crashing while fighting for positions than finishing the race at the back.

It wasn’t the Grand Prix we would have hoped for. For me, for the team, and for the people who came here. But I gave my best. Over the weekend, I was competitive and fast, the fastest I’ve ever been at Silverstone.

Today, I crashed because I made a mistake under braking. For five laps, I had someone in front of me, and when you are in that situation, the tyre temperature increases. Then, once I was trying to set my rhythm after overtaking, I would have needed a couple of laps to let the tyre cool down before pushing again. That’s why I crashed.

In any case, we made progress this weekend. I leave here with good memories and the feeling that we did a good job.

I came here to do the double Long Lap Penalty and get the feeling on the bike. That was the goal. I took a point yesterday and today, and that’s awesome! I really enjoyed my weekend with the team; I had missed them!

One of the most important things is that I got some interesting feelings on the bike and was able to provide consistent and solid feedback to the crew. Sometimes, when you miss some races, you need to catch up in this sense, and it’s not always easy. This time, everything felt quite good, and I was able to get it from the beginning of the weekend.

I’m really happy to be back and to have had such a nice weekend!

At the beginning, it was difficult because we knew that the situation would be harder for us with the medium tyre. Then I was able to fight, and it was nice.

I made a mistake on the last lap, in the last sector, and in the end, I crossed the line in 9th. We are doing a good job, and it was a consistent weekend.

Let’s keep working like that!

It’s been a tough weekend considering everything that has happened.

I’m pretty fine; it was a soft crash. I went wide and slid, and I couldn’t avoid the crash.

I wanted to fight for the top 10, and my mistake was not being able to overtake the rider in front of me. From there, the situation got tricky, as I’m missing some points on track that would allow me to attack.

We’ll try to improve and do better next week!

It’s a pity. I had some fun during the race and had some good fights. I was able to try to overtake and felt strong.

Unfortunately, I had to serve the double Long Lap penalty, and afterwards I had lost some grip, which made it difficult to overtake.

I made a small mistake; I had done my maximum to stay there, but then I crashed. It’s part of racing, I guess.

I’ll take the positives, and now we head to Mandalika!
