Quotes: ladies
Sally Bigham (GB), winner: “It is a great honour for me to win the Dolomiti Superbike in the Alta Pusteria for the second time in a row, because here in 2008 I was placed 28th in the World Championship and where I started my international career”.
Elena Gaddoni (ITA), second place: "I tried for a long time to stay at the rear of Sally to find my rhythm; but Bigham had one more gear”.
Daniela Veronesi (ITA) Third place: "It is an important place on the podium and matches my current capabilities. I tried to take advantage of my strengths on the longer and flatter stretches, as well on the descent. On the last climb, my power left me as the Prato Piazza has always been a problem for me”.
