"Too bad, because with the long-lap
penalty, the race was kind of compro-
mised already," Aldeguer said. "We
even had a good start, and then, in the
best time, while I was behind the faster
group and ready to learn, I had to
perform the penalty. I rejoined with a
good pace, but then a coming-together
with another rider made me lose some
focus. We need to improve in many
areas, especially under braking, but
today I can say that, compared to
Thailand, I saw some improvements."

"I knew that here, tire management
would be important, and I was in a
group that allowed me to do it at the
start," Mir said. "Defending myself
under braking, I was comfortable, and
I had Zarco and Bagnaia just ahead—I
was riding in a good way. Then the
battle really started with everyone,
and I was defending all the time on
the brakes, but we had to use a lot
of tire to do this. It's quite frustrating,
honestly, because I think I could have
been deeper inside the top 10. But
we were in the mix and fighting with
everyone."
