Troy Bayliss, Ducati Infostrada -- "Everything worked out perfect today, it was a really good result and it's always great to win in Italy especially in front of so many fans. The conditions here have also made it a very hard weekend for us. With the temperature so high, it's not to be caught behind others out on the track as the fumes and heat from the exhausts make it quite difficult to breathe. You can stay behind someone for a little while but not too long."

"There was a bit of a problem on the start line of the first race when the bike wouldn't start, but the Infostrada Ducati team is working so well that my other bike was ready in pit lane with the exact same settings as I had on the other bike and I barely felt the difference once the race started. For me the second race was a lot more interesting. Colin was trying very hard in the early laps to break away and I was back in third behind him and Neil Hodgson. The fumes and the heat started to get to me as I followed them, so I pushed harder to get by and it was better out in front. I used the same tire as I did in the first race, but had to work harder as the track was about 10ºC hotter made things a bit more slippery. We also had the bike set up slightly different than normal with a shorter wheelbase so that it would steer quicker. The only problem with that was that the rear of the bike was snapping around a lot more than usual, but it was OK."

Colin Edwards II, Castrol Honda -- "I'm trying everything I know out there and I feel like I'm riding as well as I ever had. Maybe I just need that little bit of bottom end power that I lacked in Germany two weeks ago. I couldn't do much in the last 10 laps, the rear tire was sideways out of every corner. Once Troy got in front I was intent on staying with him and it worked for a while but I'd cooked the rear tire and it was spinning off the corner where his wasn't. I don?t know what it is I have to do to get the better of Troy but I'll never stop trying. We've got my home round at Laguna Seca next and I'm planning on winning there."

Neil Hodgson, HM Plant Ducati -- "I was able to get off the line well and got towed along by the leading duo for the first seven or eight laps. After that I had a lonely but enjoyable ride and was even able to conserve my energy for the second leg over the last five laps. There was nothing that I could do about Troy or Colin. They've been fast all the way through testing and I knew that it would be difficult to beat them. I'll have to try harder - if that's possible - and see if I can get in between them in the next race."

Ben Bostrom, L&M Ducati -- "I picked the wrong tire, different to Neil and Nori and I couldn't even lean the bike over the way I want to. I was sure I could have got onto the podium but after the first lap the tire started to get real hot and I thought 'that was that'. I changed the tire for the second race and rode really hard but unfortunately the result was the same, I was just spinning the rear wheel coming out onto the back straight. I gained two-tenths in every lap and I was riding so hard but as the race went on I was having less and less grip. Pity, I was really looking forward to this race, now it'll have to be Laguna".

Nori Haga, Playstation Aprilia -- "I was just knocked out by the effort -- all I want to do now is to get back home and recoup in time for the USA GP on 14 July. The tarmac was boiling and halfway through the race the engine started giving off an overwhelming amount of heat. But things got worse: when I was in his slipstream, Hodgson's exhaust was blowing scorching air at me. Even so, I'm very happy. We tried out a new rear tire from Dunlop which gave us some encouraging results."

Frankie Chili, NCR Ducati -- "I'm happy. The ride in Misano is always difficult for me, because in front of my fans I would like to do a great exploit and on the contrary my race have been not lucky. Today I don't believe that I could obtain a better result. The machine performed well, but with such hot conditions, especially in the second leg, the track was very slippery and didn't allow to ride out of the limits. Before were faster and I fought successfully against Walker and Toseland in race-1. Then in the second leg I made a mistake asking for a longer final gear ratio and I couldn't manage the gas as I would prefer. In the fight against Lavilla, some lap to go, I've lost the front turning very close to the kerb, so from that moment on I've lost a bit confidence and I preferred turn not too close, so Gregorio overtook me. When I tried to surprise him at the last chicane he closed the passage and I haven't been able to pass."

Chris Walker, Fuchs Kawasaki -- "I got my head down and tried to string together some fast laps but, although I was able to run the same times as them, I couldn't quite close the gap. But the best thing about this weekend has got to be the level of consistency I've achieved on the bike. For the first time I've been able to do the same lap times all through the race, even in this heat. I expected to have quite a few problems with my eye this weekend, but it hasn't been anywhere near as bad as it was in Australia and South Africa earlier in the season. In fact, overall, this has been one of the best weekends we've had this year. Roll on Laguna Seca!"

Gregoria Lavilla, Corona Suzuki -- "I'm happy to get my best result of the season in the second race after a great fight with Chili. It was good fun! And maybe I could've got a good result in the first race as well, if it was not for a tire problem. It was very hard work, especially in these very hot conditions. I made a good start in the first race but very soon my tire behaved a bit strangely and I it didn't work as well as the same one yesterday. I nearly highsided a couple of times! I lost touch with the leaders and that was that. In race two, we used the same set-up and the same tyre and it worked really well and I lapped over a second a lap quicker. I?m really pleased with the weekend?s results."

James Toseland, HM Plant Ducati -- "I was leading Chili and Walker in the early stages of the race, before Chili got passed me and pulled away. That left me fending off Walker and I thought I had seventh in the bag until the last lap. I overcooked it on the chicane, the back end came round and I had to back off, letting him through to take the flag."

Ruben Xaus, Ducati Infostrada -- "There's nothing to say, I just lost control in both races and crashed and I'm very disappointed. I was hoping to get some more points on the board and move up the table".

Hito Izutsu, fuchs Kawasaki -- "The wrist feels pretty good on the bike, but I still lack some strength in the joint and I wasn't sure how it would fare over the course of a 25-lap Superbike race,' explained Izutsu. 'Rather than risk further injury, I made the decision to sit out this weekend's event and concentrate on getting myself fully fit for the next round at Laguna Seca.'
