Maybe The Bike Is More

We Kept On Racing, Doing Something That Luis [salom] Loved. Fortunately Or Unfortunately, Life Goes On.

In 2009, I Didn't Like That Yamaha Signed Such A Young And Competitive Teammate [jorge Lorenzo]. But Now Everything Is Different. We Are More Mature. Everyone Knows His Role And Position. Things Are Clear.

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.

Fortunately During My Career I Have Won More Or Less Everything, So I Need To Enjoy It To Have The Right Motivation.

Riding A Race Bike Is An Art - A Thing That You Do Because You Feel Something Inside.
