Did you arrange the sponsorship yourself or was this arranged by the factory ?
I just have the big contract with the factory and after the factory make the contract seperately with the sponsors. It was more comfortable for me. I did not discuss and spend time with sponsors. I had one contract and this was with Fantic.
Did you have any other system that you used besides what you have said ?
I had my wife helping me.

Like Eddy Lejeune and Jordi Tarres, Thierry had a well versed and capable team of people working for around him at all times. This was infancy of minding.
It seems stupid but I think I was in really perfect condition. The Fantic were believing me and I was believing in the factory. I give them everything that I had. They give me everything they could. I ask some things. The strategy with Adrien Prato was perfect. My brother was here and no one can know me better than him.
It was good situation to be confident in myself and I can then go forward when you have a good team around you. It's very important. My wife was very involved before and after the competitions. Then it was a very safe condition. Simple, not incredible but safe condition. I mean it as quite a perfect condition to do well. A confident condition. No problem, everything is going well. This is the memory I have from this time ...no problems. No problems with the contract, no problems with the persons. The mechanic was perfect. Good relationship, everything was perfect at that timeing.
