Jack Miller endured a difficult first Qatar MotoGP Grand Prix with a ninth place 🍃finish after qua🦂lifying fifth. 

The Australian was running second after a good start, but slowly dropped down the pack as he strugg♕led with tyre degradation. 

Miller ꦛsuffered rear grip issues after trying to increase his pace once race 🍎winner Maverick Vinales went ahead of him. 

It was certainly a suprise to see, as Miller was consistentl♕y one of the fastest riders throughout the weekend both over one lap and on race runs. 

Miller’s team-mate Francesco Bagnaia and Pramac Ducati rider Johann Zarco didn’t suffer the same issues as they both finished ⭕on the podium. 

But with a second Grand Prix this weekend around the Los🐻ail International Circuit, Mill📖er is hoping the data gathered can find him a better ‘solution’ for the race. 

"The Qatar GP didn’t go exactly as I expected. After being at th💎e top at the end of fꦰree practices and after a good qualifying, I was hoping for a better result in the race," said Miller.  

"Unfortunately, after a good start, I couldn’t ride as I wanted in the second par❀t of the competition. 

"The positive thing is that now we ha♕ve real feedback on what can happen in the race, so we will work on the data from last Sunday to find a solution that will allow me to be more competitive in the Doha GP. I am sure that we can fight for a good result."
