Lorenzo dissatisfied despite achieving goals

Saturday, 28 June 2008

Sixth place for Jorge Lorenzo in Assen was a positive result for a rider low on confidence, but the Spaniard was concerned with some problems in the race.

Proclaiming modest objectives for the A-Style TT Assen, Jorge Lorenzo was not best pleased even after achieving his goals. The Fiat Yamaha rider was displeased with a lack of enjoyment onboard the M1, but was not beating himself up too much.

Jorge Lorenzo – Sixth

`I said yesterday that the most important thing for me today was to finish after everything that´s happened recently, so this is a good thing. However I am not happy about the race because it wasn´t fun today and I had some problems, although, as in the last few races, my bike became easier to ride towards the end of the race. I must just take comfort now in the fact that we have two weeks until the next round, and hopefully by then I will be feeling a lot better. We are trying to go step-by-step but of course I want to do better than this. Valentino was not so lucky today but I want to say well done to him for finishing and taking some important points.´
