168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez made an ‘uncomfortable’ start to his Ducati debut at one of this most successful MotoGP circuits, COTA, on Friday morning.

But successful modifications by the Gresini team plus an understanding of how the Desmosedici needs to be ridden - at a Texan track where he won seven times for Honda - saw the #93 rise to third plac🍨e on the timesheets.

“I’m happy, especially because we reacted in a good way,” sa🙈id Marquez, who finish𓆉ed the day behind only Pramac Ducati’s Jorge Martin and Aprilia’s Maverick Vinales.

“We started FP1 riding a bit uncomfo💝rtable. Then we were calm, we worked quite hard with the team. I tried to give the information to them, they understood what I needed, we worked in a good way and t♍his afternoon I was riding better.

“You need to understand how to take profit from a bike. It’s true that the riding style of the Ducati is a big differenc𓆉e compared to the Honda here, but I started to understand [what I needed to do] this afternoon.

“Still there areꦛ 3-4 rider♎s - like always! -  a bit faster than us, so let’s see if tomorrow we can be better.”

Marquez acknowledged that Saturday morning’s qualifying will be crucial, as he seeks to improve on sixth (Qatar) andꦓ eighth (Portimao) on the grid so f💙ar this season.

“The time attack here is super d꧙ifficult because there are many hard brake points and it’s easy to do a mistake,” he said. “I was not bad, but on the pace, there are five of us very similar, so qualifying will be important.”

VR46’s Fabio di Giannantonio was the next best GP23 rider in ninth, with Marc’s team-mate and bro𓆉ther Alex only 13th, meaning🍨 he must take part in Qualifying 1.
