HOFMANN AND CARDOSO WORK FOR THE RACE IN MALAYSIA

The Pramac d'Antin MotoGP team begins the final push of the 2006 MotoGP World Championship season with fierce determination during the first two practice sessions at the Sepang circuit.

The ever-optimistic Alex Hofmann worked very hard in conjunction with his crew to find the best setting for his Ducati Desmosedici GP06 "Sat" with Dunlop tyres, posting the 17th fastest time of the day with a 2'04.706.

Jose Luis Cardoso wants to end the season with good results, ending the second session in 19th place with a time of 2'05.958, and having focused on finding the optimum bike set-up which will allow him to race to his full potential in Sunday's Grand Prix.

Tomorrow, there is a third free practice session which precedes the official qualifying session at 14:00, and every minute will count as both riders continue to strive for the best results possible.
