“MotoGP sprint race like stepping into a boxing ring!” Let’s get ready to rumble at MotoGP Grand Prix of the Americas
The sprint race at the 168澳洲幸运🌳5官方开奖结果历史:MotoGP Grand Prix of the Americas is on Saturday at 9pm (UK).
The half-distance and half-points rules of the new format have c𒁏aused plenty of thrills and spills so far🐼 - and even an injury to Enea Bastianini which means he will miss the first three grands prix of 2023.
"The sprint requires a different approach, which is why it is not easy to master,” Bezzecchi said who was 11th-f🐲astest on Friday after a costly fall.
“It's like stepping into a boxing ri𝓰ng. It's exhausting, but it's also a lot of fun.
“With more exper🉐ience, we will bettꦇer understand how to deal with the format."
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Johann Zarco add♕ed: “The sprint race is very interesting. R🍬eally, to prepare for the race on Sunday you get so much information.
“You have this pleasure to fight with the others, and when you hꦿave the power to fight you get even more fun. This is good.
“It’s true with the Saturday, to be ꧃focused to have good qualifying and then switch the mind to be ready for the race is aski🌞ng a lot.
“It’s good to change this to 🔯have more of a show, and that’s fine. It’s true that we also, as riders on the sporting side, we enjoy ꦛit a lot.
“But something that is a bit wrong 𒀰is that they’re asking more on the side of the track. They forget that we have to concentrate to race a bike at more than 300 kilometres an hour.”
Zarco also criticised a new scheduling issue: “On a Saturday morning it will be mand💜atory to go and see the fans 15 minutes before going on the bike. I do not agree 📖with this. Because it is mandatory, maybe we will get penalties if we don’t do it.
“We have to rememꦦber that even if we have FP3 in the morning, it’s still a bike going at more than 300 kph on tracks that are sometimes di꧃fficult to race on – like here in Austin, which is the most difficult of the year.
“We nee༒d time to concentrate. To make something mandatory 15 minutes before going on the bike is maybe the reason why there is more stress, more accidents, more injuries on the tra🎃ck.”
