Irwin continues to improve

At one stage in race two Irwin looked like he could have battled for a podium finish. Unfortunately it didn’t happen, but he did have the second fastest lap of the race and holds 10th in the championship.

“I felt really good after the second race as I wasn’t so positive after race one.  We learned a lot as a whole team and found direction with the bike for the second race.

“I was as strong as the front guys, but didn’t just have the pace for the whole race to run with them. But it will come. I have to be satisfied with that. I’m trying to get the bike set up to suit my style of riding. At the minute it is set up for a more smooth style than mine, which is quite aggressive. We are getting close so over the next couple of meeting it should be a lot better.”
