MXGP 2020: NERVES<br />
focus on any other guys and I also started to<br />
question this idea that you have to do a lot of<br />
pre-season races. Why? I’ll ride at Hawkstone<br />

Vialle: I sleep pretty good! I’m actually excited<br />
more than anything because it feels like the<br />
last GP – or big race – was a long time ago,<br />
a lot of months. I really enjoyed 2019. Every<br />

Simpson: In the past we’ve been in Qatar and<br />
Argentina and there has been a stress-free<br />

crowd compared to a European round or the<br />

‘weight’ and just the usual amount of duties<br />

changes that maybe you hadn’t seen up until
