I think I speak for everybody when you took that moto win in moto number two—none of us saw that coming. I know obviously you coming over to the States, your goal is to win, but after having that concussion last weekend, did that moto win even surprise you?
Ferrandis: Yes and no, because I know my speed. I know what I can do on a dirt bike. So, I was expecting that also in Hangtown, also in moto one. Still everything [is] new. Last week was my first National here in America so it was new and I for sure had a lot of pressure. Last weekend I didn’t make two motos. Today was again a little bit new to finish one moto and make the second moto. The first moto I just ride bad because the pressure that I put on myself and made stupid mistakes. Also in the GPs you don’t ride supercross so you have all the winter for the best bike possible. Here I ride all the winter and all the year in supercross and I just had two weeks for make a good bike for outdoors, so it was really short for me. The Yamaha is a new bike for me this year. I never had before. Everything was new. I just need time. I try to don’t go too fast. Maybe that’s what I did in Hangtown and also in moto one maybe, but finally we find a good pace.

Jeremy, obviously the first round not going quite the way you wanted it to go. Second moto you showed similar things to the old Jeremy Martin, and then this weekend it was like we had old, vintage Jeremy Martin back. I know that last year you were going through some stuff. Maybe elaborate on that and kind of where your head’s at right now and where your fitness is at right now.
Jeremy Martin: Things are good. We’re making improvements from Hangtown. I hadn’t raced in a while, since Daytona. I was a little nervous. I thought we had the bike pretty good, and then we had to make some changes to the bike midweek leading up to Glen Helen here this weekend. The improvements were night and day better. I was able to ride more like me. It’s taken me a little bit to kind of learn the Honda. I was on the Yamaha so long that I tried to kind of set my Honda up that way, but you can’t do that. It’s a really different bike. So I’ve definitely learned a lot this year as far as setting up and having an open mind. The body is healthy now. Last year I was so run down. My inflammation levels in my body were insanely high. My cortisol was through the roof. I was caffeine-dependent. I was a wreck. It wasn’t me last year. This year we’re fit, we’re healthy. I’m getting more comfortable on the bike, too. I had to change some things on how I ride for the Honda. We just keep getting better.

From an outsider’s point of view, it looks like the GEICO Honda itself has got—obviously you pulled both holeshots today—it looks like something’s happened in the engine department in the last few months because the bike obviously got you off to two holeshots today. Is there anything that you can talk about that the team’s done engine package-wise to help get you going out front on those starts?
Martin: Yeah, [Christian] Kibby spent many nights this year in the shop. I don’t think he’s been sleeping. We got some new things. It’s fast. It’s close to the Star [Racing Yamaha] bike, but it’s a much more rideable power. So he’s always working.

Zach, wow, 21-point lead now in the championship. Obviously you didn’t win a moto today but you’re here with the overall, extending your championship. I guess the question is, what’s your strategy from here on out?
Zach Osborne: Keep putting myself in positions to win, be right there at the end. I woke up with a little bit of a sore throat this morning and I wasn’t sure how it was going to go because this is not one of the best tracks for me, so to go 4-2 is good, and to take the overall is the icing on the cake. I wanted to get out of California with two top fives and I got two overalls and a 21-point lead. So I’m feeling good about my chances when we go to the East Coast. I’m looking forward to the next weeks.

One of your hometown tracks, Muddy Creek, is back-to-back with Mount Morris [High Point]. That’s more your style. What do you think it is about those tracks that suits you more?
Osborne: That’s the kind of stuff I grew up on. This is so alien for me I don’t have a setting for this. I’m just kind of seeing it blind, really. I just feel a little better about my skillset and just overall more comfortable with loamy dirt and uphill/downhill. It’s also super hard-pack. I just feel like it’s kind of sketchy. Like I said, to come out with two wins is really good.

Zach, so I know that you worked with Doctor Edwards for about two years. This year you joined Aldon’s program. Are you integrating Dr. Edwards’ program with Aldon’s program?
Osborne: Dr. Edwards just sort of helped me when I was sick as a kid, more than anything. That’s just kind of life lessons that I’ve taken with me. Working with Aldon’s been really good. I feel good about my riding and my training and just my overall program. I think the main thing is just battling with those guys on the 450s each week. It kind of just makes me work harder and makes me more comfortable with the higher pace, so that’s been the biggest thing.
