Last updated : 29 March 2012 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry born Cal Crutchlow is hoping that he will have better luck when the MotoGP season starts next week in Qatar.

The former Wyken man, who now is based on the Isle Of Man, had an injury affected season and finished 12th in the Championship.

However, Yahama's Crutchlow has been doing well in practice and said:"I feel ready and much better prepared than last year.

"I'm really happy to finish this test in the top five with a very fast pace because we worked through a lot.

"I only used three sets of tyres in 83 laps, yet I was fast and consistent all day, so it shows we are getting good endurance from the soft and hard options.

"Finishing behind Stoner and Spie is obviously good for my confidence and now I'm looking forward to going to Qatar and racing."
