   “Today I made a few overtakes, so I’m a bit more satisfied compared to yesterday. It was the result I expected today; we didn’t have the pace to be among the best, and starting from the third row I couldn’t ask for more. We still scored points and brought home the best result possible. Right now we need to keep working and continue improving to reach the level of the front runners. With the factory bike it always takes a bit more time to get everything perfectly set up.”

   FERMIN ALDEGUER #54
   “It was a complicated weekend and physically tough. In the sprint I already felt the lack of pace on a MotoGP bike, but we scored points and managed to race and finish all the races without crashing. Today was tough, a very long race, but we have to be satisfied. Last year, after three races, we didn’t have this many points.”

    

2. TOP 4 IN THE AMERICAN SPRINT FOR ALEX MARQUEZ

   “Today it was important to bring home points and avoid mistakes. Let’s say we raced defensively, waiting to find the right feeling with the bike. The crash this morning took away a lot of my confidence, even though we’re still missing something. We found something positive this morning and who knows, maybe it’s the right direction to get back to the top positions in the standings.”

   FERMIN ALDEGUER #54
   “I’m satisfied with today. This morning I had good feelings both in the free practice and in Q1. In Q2, honestly, I didn’t have much to say with only one chance for the time attack. In the race, let’s say the fatigue started to be felt — many laps on this circuit are difficult to manage. Looking ahead to tomorrow, it will definitely be important to manage our energy. We start from the third row, so it’s certainly a good beginning.”

    

    

3. GRESINI BRAZIL EDITION: ALEX AND FERMIN IN THE TOP 8

   ALEX MARQUEZ
   “The initial situation was a bit confusing and maybe we deserved a delayed start to have more time. The race wasn’t entirely negative, but in turns 10 and 11 the asphalt was literally lifting and at times it felt more like a motocross race. It was important to bring home some points; it’s a shame about the top five, but we definitely had a good Sunday. Looking at the weekend as a whole, we are still missing something in qualifying for the moment.”

   FERMIN ALDEGUER
   “We’re back, but I’m not completely happy. The potential was there to be further ahead, but physically I need more time. I’m sure tomorrow I’ll wake up with quite a lot of pain all over my body and I’ll appreciate today’s result even more. Yesterday we got the start wrong; today I started more calmly, but I lost ground. Maybe I thought too much at the beginning and I should have attacked more.”

    

4. THAILAND TO FORGET

   ALEX MÁRQUEZ
   “Starting from the third row didn’t help us, but it was still a race of management until the crash. The others have definitely improved, but we need to keep working and stay calm. My race was about staying behind Mir at a distance so as not to overheat the front tire, with no real chance to overtake. The crash came when I tried to push a bit more; I didn’t have any feeling with the front end and I lost it with a small mistake.”

   MICHELE PIRRO
   “I’m a bit disappointed, I thought I could do better by putting together all the pieces of the puzzle from these past few days. Instead, from the start of the race I immediately felt uncomfortable with the tires, a feeling I hadn’t had all weekend. I tried to manage the tire, but it was quite strange. I’m sorry because I wanted a bit more consistency. I gave it my all, and I want to thank Nadia and the whole group for the trust they’ve shown me over these days.”

    

5. ALEX OUT OF THE TOP 10 AFTER A TOUGH START

   Posted on 12:00pm Saturday 28th Feb 2026

   ALEX MARQUEZ 
   “It’s a shame because I had a very good start today. Unfortunately, under braking there was contact with Diggia, who tried to attack from the outside, and I had no options. From that moment on, I focused on my riding and overtaking, and I found a good rhythm. We definitely made a nice step forward in the sprint, and tomorrow we have a good chance to be among the protagonists. Today we could have been in the top four or five, and that will be the goal for tomorrow.”

   MICHELE PIRRO
   “We completed the sprint, even though I was hoping for more consistency in the lap times. I wasn’t that far from the group ahead of me, but I made a few small mistakes. We need to — and we can — make another step forward tomorrow as well, and thanks to the team who are doing a great job. Of course, the heat isn’t helping us perform at our best.”
