Thompson prepares for Assen round
There are two races once again at Assen, and Thompson needs to focus on two good results in the Netherlands to boost his points tally ahead of the final round of the championship, to be held at Donington Park in early October.
It has been his first foray into the Ducati championship this year and, apart from a few technical problems, it has been a success.
