Vinales was unable to close down the tw💙o leaders, but did show the type of speed that could make him a threa🌼t in today’s Grand Prix.

Speaking after his podium result, Vinales said: "It’s a boos♐t to start the second half of the season like that. We have been on a✤ good level with a lot of speed but we never put the result together. 

"We always had a good chance buꦑt for one reason or another we were never able to complete t𒁏he objective. 

"But we kept working and we know that if we take ⭕out the maximum from our bike the💙n we can do good races. 

"I’m happy 🌌because always in these conditions we have been struggling. It was amazing that I could fight back and I’m happy with how we are working 🐟this weekend."

Still without a race win for Aprilia, Vinales is bidding to beat Miller in the race to become the first-ever rider to win for three different꧂ manufacturers.

But while it could b🐼e a possibility at Silverstone, Vinales is not feeling🍸 any added pressure. 

"We꧒ don’t♛ need this pressure. We need to enjoy it and that’s the main target. 

"In the sprint we did a good race and we will keep th🌃is momentum which is really good. 

"Of course, we all have this objective in mind bu꧂t we 😼will try and enjoy the moment and understand where we are. We will try to make it happen."
