Following on from the first three overseas encounters of the season, Andrea Dovizioso has arrived in Spain, where on Sunday the fourth round of the MotoGP World Championship will be held at the Jerez de la Frontera circuit in Andalusia.
Last year's Spanish GP did not bring much joy for the Italian rider, who was forced to retire from the event on lap 10, however, even though he is not sure where they actually stand on this track, he is hoping that they will be stronger than the results of the first three rounds have shown.
“Finally we are back in Europe and even though we did a one-day test at this circuit one month ago, I don't exactly know what to expect from the Jerez race,” he said. “Our balance sheet after the first three rounds of the season is not satisfactory enough because we thought we would be quicker this year, but with the exception of the Qatar race, it hasn't been like this so far.”
“At any rate, we are all working to change the situation and although the Jerez track is one of the toughest for me and Ducati, I will be fighting hard in Spain to try and get back onto the podium.”
