Interview
"I think I was good on trials because I worked a lot.
I think trials is the most difficult sport on a bike. It
gives you a lot of discipline and a lot of hard work
to improve because you need to try and try and try.
The technique you need in trials is really difficult.
"Then I started riding enduro and rallies. Of
course, I had to learn about the speed, but I had
almost a good technique. For example, when we
have a stony stage in Dakar, I'm quite good be-
cause trials taught me a lot about these things. I
have no problems crossing the dunes. In technical
places, I think I'm quite strong.
"I think if someone wants to improve in all
motorsports, also in driving cars, I think trials can
help you a lot. You need to learn about balance.
Also, you need to think a lot and in trials you need
to be calm, to think about everything. I think it
helps in every motorsport."
