“My ride is good to win one race but the next, not so good. They also say that it is my riding style or how I use the throttle I will work on that, but we have no reason to explain this. We are working a lot to understand why, but we can’t say exactly what it is. This is the same problem I have had all year and it is so frustrating, mentally. The problem is that when the tracks allow you to have more grip, every other rider on the grid will use it to go faster. Michael Ruben Rinaldi didn’t hold his frustrations in, as he struggled in with high grip: “I knew our potential was to do a Ducati 1-2. Michael Ruben Rinaldi: ( Racing – Ducati): “Same problem I’ve had all year… frustrating, mentally…” We can just do our best, concentrate on myself and try to learn from our difficulties this season.”

It’s always better to have an advantage than come from behind, especially with the way he’s been riding he’s been riding really strongly. They need a clean weekend to get it done but, of course, he’s in a much better position than I am. “I think I can just go to Indonesia and worry about myself. Yesterday, I was on the back foot but today I could fight in that position. That was nice because I felt much more in control, I could take a breath and understand him. You can feel a sense of urgency when he’s in the race because his passes are really late and today, when I could fight with him, I could understand a lot more about how he was managing the race from a mental point of view. He locked the front two times in front of me so he’s riding on his limit as well. Jonathan Rea is 30 points back in the title race, but in Race 2 and his fight with Toprak, he saw that the Turkish rider was on the limit: “He almost crashed twice today at Turn 12. Jonathan Rea (Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK): “You can feel a sense of urgency when he’s in the race” Also, we take good points for the Championship and now, I am excited because I don’t know the Indonesian track, this is a new one!” I was fighting for second position, but also Jonny is very fast today, so we are here. It is very dangerous because you brake, then the front slides etc. The chattering was a big problem I tried to enter with a little bit of sliding but the chatter came, so it was better to release the brake. I am happy I didn’t crash, we are on the podium again, this is the business. I said ‘OK, third position is enough for today’ but also, during the race, the bike had some chattering. In the last three laps, I tried again for P2, but Jonny was also very strong, and the front end was sliding a lot. Razgatlioglu was in fine form again but missed out on a first ever triple after finishing third in San Juan’s Race 2: “I tried my best again, but my tyre had a big drop very early. Toprak Razgatlioglu (Pata Yamaha with Brixx WorldSBK): “Podium again… this is the business” I can't stress enough how good it's been with all the fans cheering! There's going to be thousands of people going home with no voice, and I'm happy about that!” I do have that side to me and if that’s what it’s going to take, that’s what it’s going to take. I was like ‘there’s a gap, I’m going for it’. I just showed that little bit of the aggressive side that I’ve tried not to show because I don’t want to have too much contact I have respect. “I saw them battling and got a little bit stuck in. I went off the start for Race 2, went back a little bit and then I felt OK. From the first lap of Warm-Up, it was hammer down. That is where it started in morning Warm-Up. It wasn’t so much visualising, it was getting pumped, getting ready for war and taking it to them. Race 2 winner Scott Redding fought back from Race 1’s crash and won on Sunday, something he was hungry for since the start of the day: “That was what was needed. Scott Redding ( Racing – Ducati): “I f that’s what it’s going to take, that’s what it’s going to take … thousands of people going home with no voice, and I'm happy about that!” Get all the gossip, insight and fallout from Argentina, with spicy stories and hot headlines below.
