Miller: From the first lap it felt better...

Jack Miller says he felt the Pramac Ducati was getting back ไtowards the form he expected to feel during a different Czech MotoGP weekend after a positive first day of action in the Austrian MotoG✅P.

The Australian was eighth quickest during first free practice at t💎he Red Bull Ring as Ducati demonstrated vastly improved performance relative to the struggles it e🏅xperienced in Brno.

Top of the timesheets in FP2 dꩲuring a weather affected session, Miller says he will need to confirm an improved base setting in FP3 before determining whether he is in contention for the podiuꦑm.

“[It was] Not bad, it was OK. Immediately from the first🐼 lap it felt better, we have some small issues with shaking, mainly near to the braking zone of Turn 3 but apart from that I am pretty happy with the performance of the bike.

“I did my best sector on the last lap of FP1 but I caught the yellow flag from Bradley at Turn 4 so it was🉐 a little unfortunate, but it’s OK the 🎉bike is working well. This afternoon it was one of those things, you sit there all session and then we tried to slicks for a couple of laps for a bit of fun.

“It's always frustrating 𓂃when we go to a track I really like, I enjoy riding in Brno, to not be in your normal way that I enjoy is not fun. You feel like you waste your opportunity at the track 🌊because you don’t enjoy it as much, you never enjoy when you struggle for the top ten.”
