Ratthapark Wilairot achieved his main objective at Mugello today, which was to finish the race, but he missed out on the points by a single position as he crossed the line in sixteenth place. It was a respectable finish from the Thai rider, who battled throughout the race with the discomfort of an arm-pump problem.
Ratthapark Wilairot (16th) “Not a bad finish to a difficult weekend, with a lot of crashes and a bad starting position. In the race I was able to recover some ground and could have done better if it wasn't for an arm pump problem in the later stages. I tried to adapt my riding and brake less but it was very painful. I have only ever had this problem once before, in Qatar earlier this year, so when I go back to Thailand I will go and see the doctor to check it over.”
Fausto Gresini “Feem gave it his best shot today and was unlucky to miss out on the points. Unfortunately he had a physical problem and that certainly didn't help matter but it's been a tough weekend.”
