"It was a joy to get back on the bike, especially in MotoGP. This winter I have worked hard to get in shape, both physically and with the nutritionist.

This Tuesday, just before the start of the second day of training, the Gresini structure reported that Di Gianantonio had not been able to sleep on the second night either, in this case due to an upset stomach.
