Capirossi wants to build up momentum

Capirossi wants to build up momentum

Loris Capirossi is optimistic for the final four races of the season and is looking to build up momentum to carry it into 2009.

The Rizla Suzuki rider has not enjoyed the kind of season he was expecting, and lies in 11th position after just one podium finish.

The veteran Italian reckons the remaining races will be vital in order to carry a good form into the winter and into the 2009 season.

"These four races will be very important for us also to keep the good form to start work on the bike for next year," said Capirossi in Japan on Thursday.

"We know we have many tests and we have to test many things after Valencia with the new bike. The plan for next year is really big. We know we have to try to do our best in the last four races with the stuff we have.

"I'm quite optimistic for the last four races. I'll try to do my best to have a better start next year."

Capirossi also said it was important that he does not need to worry about his future after Suzuki confirmed both him and teammate Chris Vermeulen for 2009.

"I think it's really important. We have to concentrate on riding to start to work on the new bike, because we want to arrive in the first race with a good bike already."
