“It was not too bad a qualifying session. After the crash in FP 3 I was not so sure if I could be able to ride. But the Clinica Mobile did a very good job and I felt nearly no pain, when I was riding the bike . The only downside was I had some strong painkillers and when i was on track I had to go through the pitlane to try and get the concentration back again. But finally I am happy enough and I hope I’ll improve before tomorrow. “
