From the fifth slot, he immediately moved up to third as the race got underway. He was well within the podium battle in the first half of the encounter but then he could not stay with the leaders. He still gave it all and crossed then line in sixth place, bringing home 10 important points for the championship standings \u2013 which see him currently seventh.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Manuel Gonzalez<\/b> did not live up to the expectations he set for himself at this event: from ninth place on the grid, he found himself stuck in the big group of riders and lost a few positions. He then started his comeback but was perhaps a bit too eager and ended up crashing. He still managed to re-join the encounter and showed a brilliant place, which likely could have put him in podium contention.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The second of two back-to-back events will begin in a few days\u2019 time at Mugello, where the standards bearers of team <b>QJMOTOR GRESINI Moto2 <\/b>will try to aim high in the team\u2019s home round.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>6<\/b><b><sup>th<\/sup><\/b><b> &#8211; ALBERT ARENAS #75<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday we did all we could, really: it was my home race and we wanted the podium. I managed to get off to a perfect start \u2013 just as I planned to do \u2013 and put myself in the podium battle with the leaders. Still we finished sixth, which is a sign that we still need plenty of work to do: we have the speed as we showed in qualifying but we need to be more effective in the race. We need to put in some great effort, both me and the team, but also stay focused and understand what didn\u2019t work here and which adjustments can allow us to be more competitive in the upcoming races.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>23<\/b><b><sup>rd<\/sup><\/b><b> &#8211; MANUEL GONZALEZ #18<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday we had a great bike that could have allowed us to finish the race in the top positions, but I made a mistake and crashed. I wasn\u2019t very lucky with overtakes today, I was pushed off track and lost several positions. I\u2019d like to apologise to the team because today\u2019s potential was really high: now we need to put the pieces together and keep the heads on our shoulders.
