We had the idea to try to stick around to maximize more by the end of the year to take advantage of more learning careers. The big problem to my injury was that every time my shoulder came out, a swelling formed that weakened me after a few consecutive laps.After all, we tried to lengthen it because we took a few steps forward which gave to us the hope of progressing, although in the race it reached significance. We tried to keep going until we crashed into Mugello which caused me to lose everything I had won, which added to the biceps injury due to being too tired ” .
