With Jack Miller now on board, KTM boss says: “Pressure is on - we need results”

Miller has swapped Ducati for KTM in the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2023 MotoGP rider line-up and will form an exciting-looking duo with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder.
They have a combined six race victories in 11 seasons in the premier class - statistics that the KTM motorspo💯rt direc﷽tor has backed them to improve.
“Time flies by.💝 It is crazy that we are going into season seven,” Beirer said. “The six years were amazing, building this project.
“Now is no longer the t🧔ime to say that we are the youngest! No. We are established.
“Now the pressure [increases]. So we have to deliver results.✃ It’s not good enough to just be there. No, we need resu🌼lts. The pressure is on.”
Miller won last season in Japan, and achieved back-to-bac♊k victories in Spain and France in 2021.
“He i꧃s a very special character,” Beirer said. “For him, he i♔s coming home.
“But this isn’t enough. We are talking about the top level of MotoGP.
“He is an outstanding rider. Brad and Jack are different but have one thing simi𒁏lar - they push very hard.
“Jack will bring a positive, fighting spirit i⛎nto the team.
“These boys fit well together.
“We need to prove now 🍃that we can be stable at the front♚.
“Brad needs the type of partner who won’t gi💫ve up, who will squeeze something out of a diff🐬icult day.”

Binder has been a part of 𒈔the KTM family for nine years - he was on the podium three times last season.
“He is a fantastic personality and a friend,” Beirer said. “So many times, s🅘peaking about new contracts, it was always clear that he wanted to stay 💖and we wanted him to stay with us.
“He was a sm🧜all kid with a dream from South Africa and is now our top factory ✅rider in the MotoGP class.
“He bri💟n🌌gs super good spirit to the team. He’s a fighter. In difficult moments he doesn’t say ‘things are difficult’.
“When the team is struggling, or I am st🧸ruggling, he says ‘don’t worry, boss!’
“We need riders with co𓄧mmitmentඣ and trust. We will deliver the best machine on that grid. We feel that trust from him.”
