The second round of the season for World Supersport takes place this weekend in Thailand at Chang International Circuit. The season's opening round at Phillip Island in Australia didn't go well for Hannes with a crash on the second lap. The month long brake has given time for the team to work hard and get ready for Thailand.

"Chang International is another circuit on the calendar that I have not ridden before. It is completely different from Phillip Island but not so specific. The errors made in the opening round have been well thought through and we have a logical solution to them so that we can make bigger steps on Friday to get familiar with the track and the set up." - Hannes
