Q&A: Tommy Hill ready to return.

Tuesday, 20th May 2008

"The only thing I remember was my leg spinning around, and from there I knew I had a big problem. I honestly thought I had lost my leg" - Tommy Hill.

Q:
What do you think about your team's results?

Tommy Hill:
The Hannspree Honda Althea Team is fantastic, and I can’t wait to start working with them again. This year has been hard as they have an excellent Honda support team. The racing this year is very competitive and fast. Unfortunately, I was injured during testing, Nannelli injured his shoulder and now Rolfo is also injured, this is definitely not good!

Q:
Are you ready to come back for the Nurburgring?

Tommy Hill:
I shall be there and ready for Nurburgring, and I hope my leg is ready for me to race, and I hope to get some good results. I have many doctors in the UK looking after me and making sure I do the right thing to make my leg strong again.

Q:
What are your targets for the next races?

Tommy Hill:
As I have missed a lot of this year’s testing and races it is going to be very hard. I hope to be in the top 10-12 in the first round and slowly work up from there and get some good results. Once again I can’t thank all my team and sponsors enough for their long lasting support and backing during these hard times.

Q:
What is your plan for 2009 if your season ends well?

Tommy Hill:
In 2009 I'd like to go to Superbike, as I have rode a Superbike for many years and feel I'd do ok on a good bike. But first I must get good results in 2008.
