Alec Udell Thoughts | About Misano: “While Paul Ricard was a strong circuit for us, I think Misano will be a challenging track. Regardless, we’re going into it well prepared and ready to put all we have into continuing to win. I’ve been watching video and practicing on the simulator to be ready to go right away when we arrive at the track. On a personal note, I am looking forward to being back in Italy!”
