Targets acquired: ciao from the Mugello Press Conference

The start to 2017 has been a different story for Moto2™ title leader Franco Morbidelli, with four wins out of five so far and now his first home race of the season. Characteristically relaxed, the Italian knows he’ll be facing down some extremely tough rivals – but also thought the same of Le Mans: “We’ve made a great start to the year, and I’m really happy about that. Couldn’t ask for any better, maybe just to not crash in Jerez but you always make some mistakes. Now here is a track where I’ve never been fast before, so here it’s important to be fast. It was a good feeling to win in Le Mans, I wasn’t expecting it. I was just looking to finish and get some good points, but when I started I had a great feeling and rhythm, so I said ‘ok, why not go for the win’? There are a lot of people who are fast here – it’ll be hard, and it’ll be important to get points, get a good start and stay at the front.”
