12th place in the British MotoGP Sprint left Joan Mir lo﷽oking for the🍸 “explanation I deserve” from Honda.

Mir narrowly missed out on Q2 in both Practice on Friday afternoon and Q1 on Saturday morning, bꦏut was more encouraged by his race pace in pra❀ctice.

However, in the Sprint he found himself unable to match the pace he showed in Practice and finally finished as the third-best Honda rider behind Luca Marini (10th) and 𓃲Johann Zarco (fifth).

“It has been🌳 a very tough Sprint race,” Mir sa🍷id after the Sprint.

“Until the Sprint ꧙race we were struggling a little bit to find these last tenths in qualifying, even though we were quite close to go to Q2, but for half-a-tenth as yesterday we couldn’t do it.

“On the other hand, my p🔜ace [in practice] was good, I was confident that I could do a good race in the Sprint [but] for some reason I was going one sec🎐ond off of my pace.

“I started to have a lot of problems that we usually have, but this weekend I didn’t com❀plain [about them] so much.

“I hope the team can give me the explanation that I deserve after pushing and trying everything to move on and hopefully tomorrow we can put all the pieces together and forget thisಌ weekend that has been very delusional.”

Mir confirmed that the pro🧸blem he had was about rear vibrat🤪ions.

“Yes, chatter problem,” the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Honda HRC rider said, “but this a♎lways come👍s when the grip level is very low.

“It’s true that the soft [compound front tyre] was a challenge for everyone because on the right side if yo🦹u pushed too much you break the front tyre and, in my case that I’m an aggressive rider on the front and I request a lot, this is not helping.

“But, this morning, with 20 laps on the front tyre, I was doing 1🎃:ꦺ59s no problem, and this afternoon I could not get into the mid-2:00s.”

Zarco: “I could adapt my riding”

In contrast to Mir’s dejection at🌱 the recurring vibration issue, LCR Honda’s Johann Zarco said he is able to adapt his style to the problem.

“We have a lot of vibration when the tyre [wears] a lot every lap, but I could adapt my riding and I’m happy,” ღhe said.

“When I beg🍎an to have it, I adapted without losing speed✱ and finally it paid off.”

HRC test rider Aleix Espargaro, who is wildcarding this weekend, said that the way to adapt is to be mor𒆙e aggressive in braking and acceleration and cut out any part of the mid-corner where the rider is without both brake and throttle.

“I don’t know yet but it looks like [...] it’s more about going deep with the brakꦿes and 𒅌then pick up the bike and accelerate – like, no phase without brake or throttle,” he said.

“But it’s difficult. This is what I see from the telemetry of 🐓Johann an🀅d Joan [Mir].”

Espargaro also said, however, that adapting to the problem is no🍨t in itself a “sol🔥ution” to it.

“I’ve said from the beginning that it’s [a rid🍰er adapting 🌟their riding style] not the solution,” he said.

“The solution is that the engineers and myself, the test team,𝔉 find a solution if we want to win races.

“We are trying our best but until this day arrives, what we have to do, the riders, is try 𓃲to adapt as much as possible.

“Johann [Zarco] proved ag𒁏ain today that he is th♏e best at adapting to this type of chattering.”
