After injuries derailed him during the last two seasons, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Michael Van Der Mark finally appears to be back at his best following another positive WorldSBK performance at Assen.

• Nicolo Bulega: Rear tyre ‘completely finished’ in Super🦋pole Race, ‘Alvaro really fast’ 
• Andrea Iannone: “We want𒈔 and need to fight for victories”

Van Der Mark ultimately came up short after going ‘back to my old habits’, but it’s clear tha🌳t the addition of Toprak Razgatlioglu is helping the Dutch rider.

“It was nice to fight for the podium and stay with the top guys,”𝕴 said Van Der Mark. “It has been awhile. In Barcelona I was pretty ღclose but here I could fight with them.

“Of course, I would have liked to be on the podium here in Assen. We tried, and came really close, but we have to sta꧑y realistic and it has been awhile since I’ve been in these positions and in this form. 

“I struggled a bit at the end of the race because I went back to my old habit of pushing a bit too hard in thཧe wrong p𝓡laces.

“That’s why I lost the top group. But I should be h🌃appy to see that we are making steps.”

When rain began to fall during Race 2 Van Der Mark was one of the riders that pus💃hed on t🃏o try and claw back lost time.

And sp꧟eaking about the conditions, Van Der Mark w🅺as happy to see the changeable conditions impact a race for the second time in two days.

“I thought, let it come. I will push more now! It was difficult because I didn’t really know how much rain there would be and ho♏w wet the track would be,” stated Van Der Mark. ♐;

“Everybody was looking at each other but this was my time to close the gap and I managed to do it but it was really difficult. Also really🎀 fun.

For the first time this seasౠon Van Der Mark was able to challenge Razgatlioglu, finishing ahead of him in the Superpole Race before overtaking the eventual Race 2 winner early on in the second feature race.

Discussing the battle with Razgatlioglu, Van Der Mark jokingly said: “It 🌳was nice to battle with them but I started to push in the wrong areas.

“I was back in my old habit and that’s why we 🧔lost it, ܫbut that’s why we compare with Toprak. 

“I have to work on this. It was fantastic. I saw in the race how ꧃strong he was and I made a💯 cheeky little pass on him to wake him up a bit.

“It was nice to figh💞t with him and it was💛 fantastic to see him take this win.”
