Lorenzo feels he's getting back to his best

Fiat Yamaha rookie Jorge Lorenzo feels he is getting back to his best form after scoring his second consecutive front row at Indianapolis today.

The Spaniard, who had a sensational start to the season with three pole positions and a win in the first three races, did not make the front row again until the last race at Misano, after a string of crashes and injuries.

"We are on the front row for the second race in a row," said Lorenzo, "and this shows that we are truly getting back to our best, so I want to thank my team for their work, both here and in Misano.

"We are still not perfect in the wet or the dry so we need to make some improvements in warm-up, but we don't know what the weather will do tomorrow so we will have to wait and see."

"I am so happy that this track is different to how I expected, because I really enjoyed myself this afternoon! I thought it would be quite dangerous but in fact I feel really safe on my M1 here, which is allowing me to be fast.

"Some of the corners are really close together which I enjoy because it means I can ride very smoothly in the style that I like. It's a good track for me."
