In the end, he had to settle for two more championship points and is now looking to sign of his season in style at Valencia.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin:

The track temperature was quite good, although the condition wasn\u2019t perfect. We chose a medium tyre for the front and a soft for the rear and I think that was the correct choice for us. But we couldn\u2019t find the same kind of performance as in FP3 when we had a strong pace, around 2\u201901 laps. I wasn\u2019t able to do that in the race and for me it was difficult to find the rear grip. The team did a great job all weekend and hopefully we can get our best result of the season in the last race in Valencia.\u201d<\/h5>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LCR Honda IDEMITSU rider Takaaki Nakagami claimed another points finish after a battling performance at the Malaysia Grand Prix on Sunday.
