The 25-year-old is pleased to silence his doubters by winning the Emilia Romagna and Rimini's Coast Grand Prix.
"It was good, especially because many people were doubting me a lot on Sunday," Vinales said.
"Most of the people think it's my mentality, but my mentality is exactly the same as the other weekends.
"I have that winning mentality and honestly, I didn't find the confidence in the bike to push from the beginning."
Yamaha are sitting at the top of Manufacturers' Championship standings with 138 points.
Ducati and KTM are placed second and third with 115 and 104 points respectively on the standings.
