MOTOGP: De Angelis equals best MotoGP result

San Carlo Honda Gresini’s Alex de Angelis was unsurprisingly over the moon with his fourth place in a difficult MotoGP race at the British Grand Prix on Sunday.

“I am absolutely delighted. That was one of the most difficult races in my whole career because when you’re on a bike with so much power in those conditions, on a circuit like Donington, which everybody knows is particularly slippery, it’s tough! The hardest thing was finding a compromise between attacking for a good position and defending it by staying upright. I could see I had a good pace and I was closing the gap to the guys in front of me but the most important thing was to finish and get a good result. I think that shows how much I have matured because it is the kind of mistake I made last year. I hope that is a good sign for the future and I think it proves the way myself and my Chief Mechanic have kept working and kept trying to improve without losing faith.”
