Karel Abraham:
"My shoulder hurts a lot. In the morning we tried it without anesthetic and it was really bad. During afternoon I let the doctors to give me an injection, even when nobody except of doctor Costa recommended it to me. It was better, but it will be hard to make the race. I´m able to ride about four fast laps, but whole race has twenty seven laps. The biggest problem are right turns and braking at the end of final straight. I´ll undergo another medical examination after which we decide if we´ll continue."
