Joan Mir was in top form on day-one of the S🉐tyrian MotoGP as he finished inside the top three in both wet and dry conditions. 

Mir set the pace throughout FP1’ dry conditions until a late time-attack from Takaaki🅷 Nakagami saw th൲e LCR Honda man finish fastest.

While in the wet conditions of FP2, it was a similar result for Mꦓir at the track where he claimed his first ever grand prix victory (Moto3 2017).

But even though the Spaniard looks like a firm favorite for the race no matter the🍰 conditions, Mir called the Austrian circuit extremely ‘dangerous’ in wet conditions and that its ‘safety is not enough’. 

"It is really dangerous. Especially the first 🌟corner because that corner is very slippery and well, it’s dangerous; but turn three is so dangero🍰us if you crash not alone," added Mir. 

"There’s not a problem (if you crash) alone I think, but in one group, it’s really dangeroꦚus that part. 

"I don’t🐻 know what we have to do, but the truth is that I think it’s not enough the safety now in the wet." 

This weekend marks the first race of the season in which Suzuki joins every other manufacturer in having 🍨the rear ride height deviceꩵ. 

T💧he Spaniard didn’t try the device today, but intends to do so tomorrow along wit🌌h team-mate Alex Rins. 

When asked about it and where he feels strong so far around the Styrian circuit, Mir added: "I fee꧑l strong on the braking area and also cornering in sector three-four, I feel great!

"I think that we must focus on the acceleration part. I’m losing a little bit the🅘re so we can improve that and w💝e can be really strong, so I hope to make another step. 

"It’s something (ride height device) that I hope we will try tomorr🔯ow and like this we can work. Of course, it’s the f♒irst prototype and we will need to work a bit, but tomorrow will be a good day to try this thing - to work on it a bit and to try to understand it." 

The delay in using it today 🐎was caused 🌱by the device not arriving until just before FP1 began. 

Rins said: "About the rear device, the boxes with the rear device arrived 30 mins before FP2 so we couldn't use it today.&n🌜bsp;

"Let’s t🌟ry it tomorrow. Now the mechanics are putting it on the bike. We have work to do tomorrow. We have to go dire🐎ct to Q2 tomorrow. So, let’s see if we can try it well."
