Simoncelli: We must score positive results

9 August 2011

Gresini Honda's Marco Simoncelli is determined to record a string of improved results during the second half of the season, with the Italian rider enduring a range of accidents so far this year. Despite his impressive pace in the category, Simoncelli is yet to step onto the MotoGP podium, something he is eager to change from Brno onwards.

"Obviously I would have preferred to go on holiday on the back of a different kind of result but that's the way it was and we just have to learn our lessons and move on from what happened at Laguna Seca," the 2008 250cc Champion said ahead of this weekend’s Czech Republic Grand Prix.

"After a wonderful holiday in some fantastic American parks I go to Brno looking for the best possible result. We have to focus on the second half of the season and try to score some positive results. The circuit suits my riding style even though I didn't go so well there last year in MotoGP.

"I have won there before in the 250 class and I have also been on pole and on the podium in 125. Overall it is a track I like and I hope to do well."
