Jorge Lorenzo
“I have to be really grateful for the fact that I have recovered so quickly from my injuries and to have had such great professionals making sure that was the case. Obviously we're still not going to be at 100% for Mugello but with every race that passes I'm able to put more weight on the footrests. I'm going to Italy with high hopes because it is one of my favourite circuits, with lots of fast and flowing corners. We have some favourable tracks coming up but we can't rely too much on that because in sport, and especially in motorcycle racing, you never know what can happen. This is a special race for me because it will be my hundredth appearance in the World Championship. It has all gone really fast and if I ever make it to 200 then I hope it goes just as fast – that would mean I'm having just as much fun as I have up to now and hopefully I'll have helped the fans enjoy it too!”
