Departing Frenchman´s season reviewed by L´Équipe journalist.
In the second part of the French-themed day of Paddock Press, Pierre Henry Potherat looks back on Sylvain Guintoli´s 2008 season in the MotoGP World Championship. The L´Équipe journalist admits that his fellow countryman had a tough time with the Alice Team Ducati, but thinks that a comeback after a year in British Superbike competition could be possible.
`Learning the Ducati/Bridgestone package was really tough for Sylvain, coming from his rookie season with Tech3 on Yamaha and Dunlop tyres,´ says Potherat.
`He took him many practice sessions and races to learn and finally he didn´t have the success he could have expected with this bike. Sylvain paid a lot for this learning phase and had many crashes. I think he deserves to be in MotoGP but we hope he´ll come back to the premier class soon.´
Randy de Puniet´s first year with LCR Honda is also reviewed today.
