Crutchlow: We need to improve

Brit Cal Crutchlow has said he needs 'to improve' after finishing sixth in Friday practice for the Italian Grand Prix.

The CMW LCR Honda rider finished half a second behind the fastest practice time of Andrea Dovizioso.

“I was quite pleased, we did a very, very good lap time with 27 laps on the tyre in the afternoon, but the problem came when we put the new ones on at the end as we didn’t go much quicker. We definitely need to improve, but I think I know the areas where I want to improve – in the first sector we’re losing a lot of time, but the rest is not too bad. We’ve had a good start to the year, we had a podium in Argentina and a fourth in Jerez."

"We had problems in some of the other races, but I’m quite happy and the package is working well. I’m gaining experience with the bike all the time, it’s quite a difficult bike to ride – you have to change your riding style a lot and it’s very different to what I’m used to. But I’m enjoying it a lot, learning all the time and the team are doing a good job.”
