KTM have made some incredible strides forward in a very short time with the MotoGP effort with Smith, Kallio and Espargaro all having solid results. How far realistically do you think they are from MotoGP success, and what are the areas they will need to work on in 2019?

‘Great steps this season marred by some bad luck for Kallio and Pol, looking from the outside there's not one main area that they seem to be lacking in and decent top 6-10 scoring results don't look to be far away. Looking forward to seeing Pol back and what Zarco can do next year’.
