Mika Kallio: "I think a top five finish is possible"

Mika Kallio Estoril 2012

Mika Kallio come to Le Mans circuit after did a test on Circuito De Navarra. This Marc VDS rider told that after did a simulation on private test, he feel positive.

Kallio said, "The test at Navarra was quite positive. I did a race simulation on the second day and the bike felt the same for the duration, not different on almost every lap like in Estoril." 

Le Mans is a tricky circuit with stop and go and this is quite difficult. "Le Mans is a different circuit, so we will need to confirm everything there on Friday, but it's certainly looking promising. Le Mans is another stop start sort of track, with some heavy braking areas and mostly slower corners, not to mention weather that often plays a big part during a race weekend." said Kallio. 

Kallio continue, "I need to improve in qualifying, to start the race from closer to the front of the grid. If I can do that this weekend then I think a top five finish is possible."
