I tried to almost slap myself to get some focus back but it just wasn’t there which is very unlike me. I came over the line in 16th obviously very disappointed and a bit confused as to why I was feeling the way I was.

After the race I spoke with Suzuki's physiotherapist, Dean Miller, who said that I was most probably low in protein as well as some other things which can cause these sort of problems and, with it being as hot as it was that makes it even worse. I've only had this problem once before in Japan last year and I hate the feeling because you just can’t focus properly.

So next is Australia where I have good memories of from last year. I didn’t go home in between so I should get a good 10 days to relax and do a bit of sightseeing before I head down to Phillip Island.

I hope I can fully get rid of whatever I have and be 100% on the ball. At least it will be cooler in Australia which is sure to help. Wish me luck!
