Bradl continued: “I was prepared, I took all my equipment from home and, well, it’s really last minute so I just took my bag and everything from the car and now we have to organise everything, sit down with the guys. It’s nice because Diego, the Crew Chief, I know him from Aprilia, so it’s not that bad. Also, I have some HRC technicians that I was working for last time I was working on the bike, so I know the people quite well and so this was another reason I said ‘hey I have nothing to lose’ and I’ll try to enjoy myself and do a good job for HRC and help develop the bike for the future.”
