Barros fully fit after summer break

Alex Barros is glad MotoGP will be back in action again next week. The MotoGP circus will travel to the Czech Republic for an always interesting race at the circuit of Brno. Barros is fully fit after recent injuries to his right hand had hindered his previous races.

Barros is extremely motivated to get back in action again. He said: "I'm happy to get back to action; finally after this summer break, my right hand has recovered its strength and I'm ready to go racing and determined to recover all the points lost in these two last races.

"The Brno circuit offers a variety of technical challenges that makes it difficult for riders to perform due to combination of elevation changes. As always I will give my best and I am sure that both my Desmosedici and Bridgestone tires will enable me to achieve my targets."
