Monster Yamaha’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Rins insisted that his 17th place on the combined Buriram MotoGP test timesheets didn’t tell the full story.

The Spaniard admitted he couldn’t get the most f😼rom his M1 during time attacks, leaving him 1.2s from the top and 0.5s from team-mate Fabio Quartararo, but was much more comfortable in terms of race pace.

In particular, Rins believes the latest♈ upgrades have helped with braking, which has also benefitted corner exit.

“These days in Sepang and Buriram went in a good way,” he said. “We tested many, many items. Mos▨t of them we are using right now so I can say that I improved my base bike.

“I'm a⛦ble to ride more comfortably, and make less mistakes than last year. So I'm  happy. I feel quite ready to start the season.

“For sure we need to keep working on the fa💧st lap. Still I'm a little bit far in this sense. I couldn't go below the ‘30s. So let's see if in GP weekend we canꦐ find something because in terms of pace, we are on a good way.”

Rins explained: “For me, the biggest improvement on the bike is in the braking area. I feel more comfortable. I can stop the bike in a better way. Still, as I said, in time attack mode it✅'s a litt✨le bit difficult to put the bike in [to the corners].

“But in respect to last year when🐟 I was really struggling in the straight braking are🍨a, with rear lift, we improved this.”

Better control on the way into the💙 corner also means a better exit.

“♔In terms of acceleration, by improving the braking area, I'm able to stop better the bike. So then I'm on a better line and I can pick up the bike better [on the exit].”

However, he’d still like to see more top speed: “Still it's difficult to overtake people on the straig🍬ht, on th🧔e slipstream.”

While the European MotoGP manufacturers have to freeze engine design for the next two years, ahead of the 850cc era, Yamaha and Honda are free to develop their engines due to their D conces💦sion ranking.

The s🐻eason-opening Thai MotoGP starts atꦐ Buriram on Friday, February 28.
