B. R. Hayden Guys Quotations

I'm so happy to be to be on the podium today. Before the race things weren't going to plan. In the morning warm-up we were so slow and were in real trouble. My guys made some changes and I have to be real grateful to them as they got it right and that's why I got third. The bike was so much better in the race than it had been all weekend - so much faster.

Tomorrow is going to be really tough because there are a lot of guys going really fast ... right now I'm not consistently fast enough (to win) ... but we'll definitely go for it.

Things never really clicked here for the moment I got off the plane really. Seemed like I was on the back foot all weekend and things never came good to be honest. In the race I had a good battle with a few guys and went back and forth with Barros a few times then I overshot at the end of the straightaway and lost a few places. I feel I let my boys down here and don't feel good about it. I just want to make sure we come out of the gate fast in Sepang next week and put things straight.

I told the guys this was a pivotal game. If we beat them, we're tied with them and they have to play Auburn next week.

They're going to get better as the season goes on. Next year, I'll be chopping at the bit to watch these guys throw.
