Verzeihung, ist das nicht ein wenig unfair? Kagayama hatte eine Lungenquetschung und hat vermutlich sogar gegen ärztlichen Rat gehandelt als er nach Valencia geflogen ist.

Okay Jochen,hast ja recht.Hatte ich schon wieder vergessen.Das lasse ich aber nur noch einmal durchgehen

Im ernst,Yukio hatte wohl echt Probleme mit seiner Verletzung.
Er fuhr sogar ohne Schmerzmittel um zu sehen was ging und was nicht.Ausserdem wollte er dem Team helfen wichtige Daten zu sammeln

Yukio Kagayama:
“On the first day I could feel pain in my left shoulder, but I wanted to help in this test so I tried to forget about it. On the bike it was not so bad, but in the evening I could feel it for sure. I didn't take any pain-killers at all because I wanted to feel what was going on with my bike as much as possible. There are many things to test here so it was just a case of getting on with it. Fortunately the weather was good on both days and we were able to do a lot of work. For me it was difficult to ride for more than about five or six laps in one go - because of my shoulder - so I tried to concentrate on the important things we had to test - different links, ignition etc. Some of this work will be very useful in the future and tests are the best place to try these things, not during a race weekend.
“I had some tyre problems today - like others - and I could not get the best performance from the rears. The other problem today was the wind! It was so strong, kept changing direction and every lap was different which made life difficult. It is bad enough trying to hang on to a bike in strong winds when you are 100% fit, but it is much more difficult when your shoulder is not as strong as it should be! But I got through the tests ok and now I have some time before Donington for my shoulder to improve.”
