"These last two races before the summer break are very important, I hope to be able to accumulate some points and I will try to fight for the podium both here and in Assen. I still think I deserved a nice holiday this year."
This was said by Aprilia rider Aleix Espargaró in the press conference on Thursday ahead of the German GP in the MotoGp class.
"Germany has always been a good track for Aprilia and last year I was fast both in qualifying and in the race. Then I will try to forget the Barcelona error as soon as possible", added the Spaniard, who in the last race , due to an error in the calculation of the laps, he got up believing he had conquered the second place, then finishing only fifth.
"I was angry after Barcelona, not only for the mistake on the last lap, but also for how the race went - explained Espargaro, second in the World Championship behind Fabio Quartararo -. There were many worries, we were a lot cautious, I started the race too slowly, at a certain point I realized that it was impossible to recover. I had the pace to keep up with Quartararo, but I didn't succeed, I started too cautiously, today we had a very good meeting long to talk about these things and prevent them from happening again ".
