Jakub Kornfeil leaves the United States with renewed confidence for his home race next weekend. The Czech rider of RW Racing GP finished the Grand Prix of Indianapolis in 10th place after a solid race. His Dutch team mate Jasper Iwema was less fortunate. He was knocked off his bike in the exit of the first corner.
Jakub Kornfeil (10):
"I’m happy with this result. I had a good start, coming from 16th. My pace was good. With this pace I could have raced with the top 6. It’s a pity we botched up qualifying. But it certainly feels good to be back in the top 10. I’m looking forward to my home race next week. I’ve always had good results in Brno."
Jasper Iwema (DNF):
"I’m lucky I am unhurt. I couldn’t do anything about it. I don’t really know who T-boned me. It’s a pity because there were many DNF’s. Unfortunately I was the first… The only thing I might blame myself is having to start from 27th on the grid. That is a risk. We have to improve in practices."
