Monster Yamaha's Maverick Vinales believes he is in a better position to fight for the Jerez MotoGP win on Sunday using all the data collected collected from last weekend.
The Spaniard's gamble on the soft front Michelin didn't pay off in the soaring temperatures but he still managed to bag second behind stablemate Fabio Quartararo and will be in the hunt with a better tyre selection this time around.
"Last week I felt amazing on the bike here in Jerez, so I also feel confident for this GP," said Vinales.
"Honestly, I had a good pace – first in the test and later throughout the race weekend – and despite the tyre degradation in the race I was able to take second place. My team did a great job and we are all really motivated to fight for the podium and the victory again.
"I think we can be even stronger this time, because we now have all this extra race data. We have been doing a good job so far, so we will continue to work hard, as always, to get the best result possible."
