Pramac Qatar test notes 2009-03-03

NOCTURNAL TEST IN DOHA CONCLUDED

THE PRAMAC RACING TEAM DUO GOES BACK HOME WITH TRUST

Fabiano Sterlacchini -- Pramac Racing Technical Director

"We are satisfied of the work done in these three days. Today we were well set up, but close to the end of the session when the track was getting colder, Mika preferred to end his session in advance. He has cleverly avoided repeating what happened yesterday and we totally agreed with him. From yesterday we improved by almost two seconds and this give us a lot of hopes for when we will come back here for the race in the middle of April."

Mika Kallio -- Pramac Racing Rider

"Today it went a bit better compared to yesterday even if the feeling with the front part of the bike wasn't the best. I couldn't find the right confidence to push even more. I am convinced that when we will come back here for the first race of the season we will do much better. The track conditions should be much warmer and this should facilitate our work."

Niccolo Canepa -- Pramac Racing Rider

"Like yesterday we have chosen to don't step on the track in the last couple of hours because it was getting too cold. Some of the riders made it to improve their best lap times in the latest minutes overtaking us in the classification. But this doesn't matter today. I am satisfied by the work done even if today I made a small mistake and I slipped. Luckily nothing serious happened. We will now go back home trustful and with high morale, surely much happier than at the end of the Sepang Test."
