The Spaniard Joan Mir (Honda RC 213 V), who fell this Saturday during the sprint race of the MotoGP Spanish Grand Prix, acknowledges the presence of “lack of confidence”.
“When it’s too hot, all the problems get worse, then you see where you’re missing, and there’s a lot missing in cornering, in acceleration. I’m having a lot of trouble there. What should I do? I brake hard and I can make up a lot of time , but it works for me one lap, two, three, four, five or six, but not twenty-twelve and I make a mistake,” lamented Mir.
“This is fatal for confidence and that is why I have a brutal lack of confidence. Sometimes it is difficult to have the same confidence and motivation as before and this situation does not help to recover anything or feel good,” he laments.
“Now is the time for it. We got out of a very difficult situation, so we have to get out of it and we have to take it now as an exercise to gather information, and then see what they bring to the test to see what can be improved, because that’s how you risk”, continued Joan Mir.
“The races go on and the bike is the same. Everyone changes and we go on without improving, in a race the temperature or the circuit can touch you and make a good race, training or qualifying, but then reality comes back and you are not. an easy situation,” commented Joan Mir somewhat bitterly.
“How do I get the motivation not to go away? I can’t. It’s hard. Try, because what moves me to give one hundred percent and take risk is being able to win, that feeling you have when you’ve done At results drive me more than passion,” Mir continued about his situation.
“I enjoy riding a motorcycle at home, I love it and it’s my everyday, but in MotoGP it’s stress and work, and when you suffer you don’t enjoy it and I haven’t enjoyed it for a long time, but it’s necessary to keep pushing and see what the future brings. Monday to make things easier for us, to create moments that help me improve my confidence, even though I know it’s a long time and gradually gaining confidence, and now it’s going downhill,” Mir said
“We tried a lot of things in Sepang, but none worked. I’m giving one hundred percent and I’m testing. The bike is the same or very similar to Valencia. We’re at the beginning. I try it and crash and this is what there and it is not going to be that they squeeze me or I squeeze them. If they bring things I will improve too. Everything is related,” emphasized Mir.
