Hofmann hopes to make up after disappointing weekend

Pramac D'Antin rider Alex Hofmann will be looking for a better weekend in Catalunya to make up for a disappointing weekend in Mugello. The German is currently twelfth in the MotoGP championship with 35 points - eleven points behind on team-mate Barros.

Alex Hofmann said about the upcoming Spanish Grand Prix: "I'm ready for this next race in Spain and, like in Mugello last weekend, there will be exciting atmosphere from the passionate fans who support us and I would like get a good result for them. After the last race, I was not completely satisfied and I would like to enjoy a better weekend in Catalunya.

"In the Spanish track there is a long straight and it will be a good opportunity for us and our Ducati Desmosesidici. I hope to be able to resolve the issues that I faced in Mugello, especially with my feeling at the rear and to enjoy a great race in Barcelona."
