KTM find the positives from Losail

“I mean Qatar is always a tricky one, it’s one of those tracks where the conditions constantly change and you find yourself chasing setting. Then the track gets better and a setting works, and then it doesn’t, and it’s very confusing so I’m quite happy that we finished the race without any problems. But yeah, we can’t be overly happy with the performance. I was happy with my opening ten laps, I made a good start up into the points and was fighting with all the guys that finished there, which was looking promising. I had a little bit of a slower pace than some of the guys around me but you know 56.5 was kind of my maximum. Then after just 10 laps I started to struggle with the front tyre! it seems quite strange because we hadn’t had that problem during all the weekend so it was a little frustrating from that point of view. Then I just tried to do the maximum I could, learn from the guys that passed me, the different manufacturers and how they were riding; where they had some advantages on us, and give all this info to my engineers. Hopefully we come up with something interesting for Argentina.
