Difficult day for Hofmann

Bad luck for Pramac d'Antin rider Alex Hofmann who was the victim of a harmless fall and wasn't able to make the most of the hard work that his team had put in, leaving some remaining issues to work before qualifying practice tomorrow afternoon.

Hofmann said about Friday's free practice sessions: "This is a day to forget! In the morning I wasn't able to find the right feeling with my Desmosedici, so before the afternoon session we changed bike set-up, but unfortunately I fell after my first lap and I couldn't continue with the same bike. For this reason we were not able to find the right race set-up. I hope to do achieve this tomorrow before the qualifying session in order to obtain the best possible position on the starting grid."
