168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Luca Marini has twice tested at Jerez since the Qatar MotoGP to get to grips with his new Honda.

Ahead of this weekend’s Portuguese MotoGP at Portimao, Marini is 𓂃entering with extra practice under his belt as a result of the new concessions rules.

The rule - which enables Hond🌸a to organise private tests - was taken advantage of twice in the past fortnight, with Marini testing his Honda at the Jerez track.

His Repsol Honda r𓃲ace debut yielded a🌟n extremely worrying 20th-place finish at the season-opener in Qatar.

“It was great to have a day to enjoy the bike at🎐 a different track,” he said in Portimao.

“It was a really good test.

“I think that we found a base for the bik🔯e that works really well in Jereဣz. I hope it also works here.

“It will be interesting🍸 to see, at a different track, if everything is okay or no💜t.

“We made changes to the bike. After the💮 Qatar GP, we analysed everything.

“We understood what went bad. Now, we are trying෴ to fix it.

“We are in a good way now.

“I am curious to see how the bike works here.

“For Honda in history, this is a better track than Qatar. So we should be closer to the top 🅺riders.”

Marini detailed the issues he experienced during his first race weekend with Honda: “The problem was that the feeling of the bike was not so good, especially in the turning area. I strugglꦉed a lot.

“The setting had too much load on the front.

“My riding sty✱le? I am very tall, very long, so on the bike I put a lot of weight on the tyres.

“If we’re🌼 🍬not in the perfect balance - also, in the past it has been like this - then we have a problem.

“Also, in the past I put too much load on the rear. I am taller and heavier than the others so I put too much weight on the tyres then I have problems in the race with temperature or degradatio🐟n to the tyres.

“We need to find t♑he base o🗹f the bike. Jerez helped with this solution.”

Johann Zarco, the new LCR Honda rider who is also adjusting from riding a Ducati last year, has pinpointed gri🌃p during acceleration as his key problem.

Marini reacted: “I t🎶hink Johann is maybeꦦ the best rider in the world at using the acceleration of a bike.

“At Ducati he made up his 🌱lap time on the exit of the corners.

“That is really strangeಞ, because the normal thing is to make 🐓the time in braking entry.

“But he’s so st💧rong in exit that he can be fast just by using his speed in t🧸he exit.

“He’s doing a great job for Honda using thi🤪s part of his riding style.

“For sure, he’s more sensiti𝓡ve in this area than the othe൩rs.

“For me, it’s not where I am losin♒g the most. For me, there is more time in the middle of the corner compared to Ducati.

“In the first part of acceleration, KTM and Aprilia are the strongest because they have the most gr🔯ip.

“But we can defend in that moment.

༒“In the second part🍎 of acceleration, Ducati are the strongest and we are not so bad. Maybe better than Aprilia and Yamaha, I think.

“In the middle of the corner we ♐are the slowest,🥃 on my side.”
