•@26_DaniPedrosa: “It’s a track that I’ve liked since I started racing, and I always have a good feeling there”
Immediately following the Austrian Grand Prix, the MotoGP World Championship takes the short trip to the Czech Republic for round 11 of the 2016 season. Marc Marquez comes into the Czech GP leader of the overall standings with 181 points, and has a good record at Brno. The Spaniard has been on the podium at 4 of his last 5 appearances there (2 in Moto2 and 2 in MotoGP), with two victories. Fourth in the World Championship with 105 points, Dani Pedrosa will be in action at one of his favourite tracks this weekend. He has won there in all three classes and finished on the podium in five of his last seven visits to Brno.

“We had a challenging weekend in Austria but we did the best we could and, all things considered, we were able to get away quite well. The shoulder didn’t bother me during the race but it was a bit sore afterward, so these couple of days before Brno have been good to rest a bit. Brno isn’t one of my favourite tracks but we’ve been able to get some good results there in the past. We must be really focused and work well in order to be able to fight for the podium again.”

“In this second part of the season, we should find some more suitable tracks for us. Of course Brno has some long straights that can be demanding for us, but it’s a track that I’ve liked since I started racing, and I always have a good feeling there. It’s very wide, with some very fast corners, and you must be able to hit the best lines to set good lap times, as it doesn’t forgive the smallest mistake. I just hope that the weather is stable so we can use all the practice time and try to build up some more confidence and speed.”
