MarcVDS Moto2 rider Scott Redding is hoping he can bounce back from a disastrous race at Assen's MotoGP round where a drying track once again left him with no grip.
The Gloucestershire teenager, who was a pace-setter in both wet and dry practice, was left to run around at the back in Holland as his setup can't cope with mixed conditions.
"Assen was a disaster; so frustrating for me and the team. The bike works well in the dry and also when it's fully wet, but I just didn't have any grip in the mixed conditions on race day. Thankfully it looks like conditions will be more favourable at Mugello, where the weather forecast is for hot and sunny, at least on Saturday and Sunday," he said.
"Mugello is another fast track and, although it's not been good for me in terms of results in recent years, it's one I like a lot. I want to be back up there and battling for a top six finish in Italy and my pace in the dry last weekend means I'm confident that I can do it."
