Views from the 250cc podium
The 250cc podium finishers gave their thoughts on the Alice Grand Prix de France, a race that further compacted the quarter litre picture.
Alex Debon – Race Winner
`Today is a great day for me; the victory has been a lot of hard work, with many ups and downs. It was very difficult at the start because the track was almost impossible with dry tyres. I´ve been in the shadows for nearly two years, and I have to thank everybody for this victory and say that this proves I am back.´
Marco Simoncelli – Second Place
`Today was very difficult, because in the first part of the race the conditions were very hard. The track was completely wet, and lap by lap I tried to push more. I had a better feeling and had a fantastic last lap.´
Mattia Pasini – Third Place
`It was a strange race because of the conditions; the front end feeling wasn't very good at the start. I started to push and myself and Marco passed four or five riders, and we were able to get onto the podium once again.
