The second round of WSS took place on
Sunday morning in Thailand on the Chang International Circuit. Hannes
started the race from P24.
During the weekend Hannes struggled with the setup of the bike and in
the race he battled between 18th and 20th place for the whole 17 laps.
He went on the final lap on P19 but thanks to a riding error of Hikari
Okubo and by taking over Yamaha rider Mike Di Meglio Hannes took the
17th place.
"On a weekend like that 17th place is a positive result. We found a
direction for the setup on Sunday morning and started to realize in
which aspect the bike needs work. 17th place is not why we are here but
the data will help us a lot when we return to Europe. Big thank you to
the team for all the good work through-out the weekend and also to all
the sponsors and supporters who make it all possible!" - Hannes
