We will see later on with Dani (Amatriain, a prominent figure in both Lotus Aprilia and the Belson Derbi team with which Olive competes in 125cc) what we are going to do; nothing is decided yet,´ said the Spaniard, still chasing an elusive first victory in the lower cylinder category which remains his primary focus.
`It was an interesting test, but I have to be fully concentrated on the next race in Misano, because there are still six races to go this season.´
