find their rhythm , ultimately settling into a steady third-place position .
“ I had a big battle with Josep Garcia all day , which was really good ,” explained Verona at the end of the day . “ I was ahead after the penultimate test and , well , I had a small fall in the final test and lost time . I somehow got some soil into my front brake lever , which meant the front brake was stuck on for a while . It was very strange . Then we had some rain and with the break not so good , I crashed again . Anyway , I ’ m happy . I had a good day and so did the team .”
