Gardner finished the opening day a second down on 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Michael Ruben Rinaldi, who jumped to the top of the leaderboard during the final few minutes after WorldSBK champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista was quickest in the morning session. 

ꩲThe GRT Yamaha rider, who was also impressive during the two-day Jerez test, completed 64 laps on his way to 12th which included finishing behind sever♔al riders that used two separate bikes to set official lap times. 

• ‘You should improve and we did not’ - Rinal𒀰di at a loss oveꦐr qualifying pace 
• Bautista: ‘Su🍷ddenly I felt, boom!’ - unlea🙈shed after feeling ‘something strange’

Gardner set his best time on the SC0 race ty꧟re, as did the likes of💧 Rinaldi and Bautista, but when it came to unlocking potential from the SCX the Australian felt as though more was still to come.

"Started off not so bad and for sure I’m understanding more the bike," said Gardner. "In the end we🎃 were quite fast with the SC0 but to put the lap time together with the SCX we struggled still.&nbs🌳p;

"We need to make some changes and maybe this can be the focus [for day-two]. I’m happy with the gap and I think 𝄹it’s much better than Jerez."

In need of closing the gap, not only to his team-mate, but the front of the field is Gardner’s team-mate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Domnique Aegerter, after the back𒆙-to-back WorldSSP champion finished 1.6s down o🐈n the fastest time.

Aegerter was one of the stars ꦕof the show in Jerez, with much of his best work being done on day-two which could be a good sign for today’s final day of action.

Having experienced the Portimao circuit on a Yamaha R6 over the last two years, jumpin onto the Suep🔥rbike aboard one of the more unique tracks proved challenging for the Swiss rider, afte rhe called it very ‘demanding’. 

Aegerter added: "Going to a new trꦜack - it’s a very physical and demanding track to ride with this bike. 

"It’s not so easy.🌜 So much up-and-down so we tried to im☂prove, make laps and understand the setting to work on the chassis and the electronics part."
