4 Quotes by Neil Hodgson

He came over trying to tell me the rules and I find that quite insulting. I've been racing a lot of years. I'm not going to have anybody tell me what the rules are or what should be done. You've got to have mutual respect out there (for other riders) and I have, all my career.

I was on a fast lap, and I aborted it. I wasn't riding around really slow and I wasn't sure if I was even coming into the pits. He came past me and started waving his hand all crazy like he's done three or four times before.

The race package we have is quite good. We have chosen a tyre and we know exactly what we have with our settings. There are some races that you aren't sure of where you stand, but this isn't one of them. Looking at the lap-by-lap times of all the riders, I think it's going to be a close race. I'm a little disappointed to be on the second row. I thought we had enough to start out front, but that's racing.

I'm very relaxed and confident heading into the season.
