As much difficult was Alex Hofmann's day that because of some technical difficulties doesn't achieve to work hardly during qualifying session, finding only a penalty position for his French race.

Alex Barros ( 1'35.085 with race tires - 1'34.817 with qualifying tires):

"My afternoon session wasn't very good today, sincerly I hoped is something better to find as less s possible difficult at the beginning of the race. Unfortunately with Bridgestone qualifying tires I haven't found the right feeling, I succeded only in few tenths better that weren't enought to get good position on the starting grid. In spite of I'm anyway confident for my race because my race pace and my Ducati Desmosedici race setting are very satisfactory. I know that tomorrow will be a very complicated day, in this kind of track, is very difficult to overtake the other, but I will push at hard as possible to be with the leading group and get final good result.
