In the magic bowl of Indianapolis, the Neapolitan Raffaele De Rosa can not find a smile, because while the eleventh place at the finish allowed him to maintain leadership in the ranking of rookies, second is the regret for having groped wasted opportunity for the assault last step of the podium. 

De Rosa's performance was affected by the fall suffered in the few minutes remaining in the tests on Saturday when his Honda has unseated. 

Fortunately, the consequences for him were not heavy, but the race was run in perfect physical condition: "The left leg - examines the pilot of the Scot Racing Team - was not the best, did not allow me to switch to better gear and lean the bike into corners. I was forced to race without taking risks, and it was a shame, because the feeling with the bike was excellent. I was very at ease in braking, and this allowed me to catch up to the Honda engine that is charged against those of other houses. I think if he had been running in optimal conditions, I got another rider on the podium for my team. " 

No time to take off the suit, that the MotoGP circus moves on Santamonica circuit of Misano, and De Rosa hopes to redeem himself as early as next weekend: "If it takes the pain - promises - we will see some beautiful. The Misano is one of my favorites, and I'd like to do full booty. It will be very difficult, because opponents as Aoyama, Simoncelli, Pasini, Bautista and Barbera have many reasons to win, but I did not shoot back, and I'll be there to play. "
