“Thought I would send you a quick note…”

Gigi tells me you have given everyone in the Ducati pit garage one of your motivational posters. Never do that again, OK?

I have spoken to Casey and he doesn’t know what the problem is. He says the bike works for him.

I have also spoken to Dovi and he was much happier than he was last year when he first heard we had given you all this money to win a world title for us.

I have not yet spoken to Jonas Folger, but I do have his phone number.

This morning I got an email from Matthias Müller. He runs Volkswagen. He is my boss. He is very German. He has no sense of humour.

His email said: “Meeting to discuss MotoGP progress Friday 7am”.

I’ll let you know what happens. Count on it.

Best regards,

Claudio
