Pre-season thoughts on 2009: "I am really looking forward to the 2009 season now. Shaun Muir's Hydrex Honda team is a great squad to be with and I have already worked with them in the past, so to be able to come back is a great opportunity for me. I have already started my training for next season and winning the BSB title next year is my main focus now. The team are going to give me the opportunity to fight for the Championship next year and I am really up for the challenge."
