Pedrosa has a strong record at Sachsenring having won there in 2007 and he led the race before a crash in 2008, whilst last year the Spaniard finished on the podium. Having finished second in the last two rounds at Assen and Catalunya, Pedrosa is pleased with the consistency he has started to develop and now wants to build on it.
“It’s been nice to have some rest after three races in a row, but I’m already looking forward to the last two races before the summer break,” he said after a weekend off in a busy summer schedule. “The race at Catalunya was very positive for us and was another podium after the one we got in Assen. I want to maintain this momentum and keep moving forward, and fight for the victory in the two next races. The three races on consecutive weekends we’ve just had have helped me to achieve a very good physical condition and I feel really confident now.”
Discussing his view of this weekend’s venue, Pedrosa continued: “Sachsenring is a circuit where I enjoy racing and we’ve normally had a good performance there; even in 2008 when I crashed I was leading the race with a good gap, so it makes me feel that we can do well again this weekend. I want to be totally concentrated on not making any mistakes and be ready to fight for the win. Finally, I want to congratulate the Spanish national football team for winning the World Cup. I watched the match on TV and it was very emotional!”
