168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jack Miller’s hopes of a strong COTA MotoGP Sprint were effec💞tively over in the first few hundred metres.

While Fab🔴io Quartararo surged from eleventh to fourth at the start, fe🍎llow Yamaha rider Miller went in the opposite direction.

Wheelspin off the line saw him drop from nin🌸th to 13th - before a broken wing and an off-track moment compounded his struggles.

Miller eventually finished 14th.

“Unfortunately, at th🦂e start I spun the rear 🎉tyre too much, and it kept spinning all the way to Turn 1, where I found myself caught in the chaos,” Miller said.

“From that moment u💎ntil the chequered flag, it was a tough battle with several contacts, one of which broke my right wing.

“Then, I ran wide when I got caught in another rider‘s slipstream, so I decided to take a longer line to avoid t༒rouble.

“It‘s a shame because my race pace was strong, and th😼e setup changes we made are working in the right direction, which gives me confidence.

“We‘re getting cl🧜oser step by step. Now, we need a strong start tomorrow to fight at the front.”

Borsoi: "Disappointing result, but Miller had the pace"

Pramac team director Gino Borsoi admitted the result was especially frustrating given Quartararo’s performance - the Frenchman cla♈iming Yamaha's best finish of the season in sixth.

“I can’t hide my disappointment because, aft♛er Jack’s strong qualifying performance, I expected a more competitive Sprint race, especially given Fabio Quartararo’s excellent showing, which proved that the YꦡZR-M1 is competitive on this track,” Borsoi said.

“Jackꦡ had a similar pace to Quartararo all weekend, so our expectations were high. Unfortunately, a difficult start and a tough first-lap contact put Jack’s race on the back foot.

“Then, in his effort to recover, he made a mistake that end🍨ed any chance of 🧜fighting for points.

“It’s a shame because his pace in the second half of thꦯe race showed he had the potenܫtial for a strong result.

“Now, we are looking🍌 for a com✱eback in tomorrow’s Grand Prix, where a good start will be crucial.”

Augusto Fernandez's first MotoGP race for Yamaha

Miller’s stand-in team-mate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Augusto Fernandez, riding in place of the injured Miguel Oliveira, finished 18th in his first MotoGP race as ꦆa🉐 Yamaha rider.

“It was a tough day, even more so because it was my first time on a dry track this weekend after the rain on Fri💧day,” said former KTM rid⛦er Fernandez.

“My main focus is on gaining confidence🐼 with the M1, building it up session by session - or even lap by lap. There‘s a big difference between testing for development and actually racing in a Grand Prix weekend.

“I have to be patient, work on improving my speed consistently, and avoi𒀰d mistakes. 

"While I can‘t expect outstanding results right now, I need to maximise my track time, complete the race, and gather as much data as possible. 🐟So far, that‘s exactly what I‘m doing.”
