168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jack Miller has delivered an optimistic assessment of KTM’s readiness for the 2024 MotoGP season.

The Austrian manufacturer caught the eye during the three-day preseason Sepang te👍st, along with Aprilia, by using bold aerodynamics.

And Pedro Acost⭕a, the prodigious rookie with Tech3 GASGAS, shone particularly on the opening day to raise optimism within the KTM camp♈.

Factory rider Miller said: “The bike is working pretty well. I’m really happy with the improvements we’ve mad🎉e throughout the winter.

“I did the fastest lap that I’ve ever don✃e, around here.

“Still a se♐cond off the other boys, so we need toඣ find a little bit more. But we’ll find it come race time.

“I feel more confident going into racing this yea▨r than I did last year.

“We were able to iron out some of the things that we needed to, to understand the package going foܫrward.

“Another positive day. I’m🌸 keen for a sleep, to reflect on this test, and under😼stand where I can find another second!”

Miller confirmed that KTM have almost finalised the set-up for the bike which will begin t🐼he MotoGP season.

“Pretty much, we know what we want,” he said. “Some veᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚrsion of it. We’ve tried countless version this week.

“We have a clear 🌱understanding. We know where we’re going.

“In terms of electronics, whateve🗹r we’ve brought has been a bigꦆ improvement.

“There a𝕴re s⭕till things to iron out with it, obviously being a new system.

“But it’s working really well.”

Miller said about similarities to the 2023 bike: “The engine is pretty simi🐓lꦦar.

“꧂We didn’t need to reinvent the wheel when it comes to an engine.

“Our engine was quite strong. It needed polishing. And tha🐓t’s what they were able to do.”

But not everything is perfect.

“My weakness t🃏oday? ♌When I wanted to put a time attack together, putting the rear in shape,” Miller said on Thursday.

“I had countless highside moments.

“It just comes down to… there are variables. Lean angle, position. You feel like you arജe driving really well, but all of a sudden you pick the bike up and the grip goes away.

“It’s all to do with electronics.”

Miller finished 11th last year, his first💞 since swapping Ducati for KTM.

But he trailed teammate Brad Binder who was an outsider in the title b💦attle before finishing fourth.

The pressure will ramp up, particularly on Miller, with the arri♈val of Acosta into the premier class.

Miller ended Thursday, the last day of the Sepang t🤡est, 14th-quickest.

MotoGP will head to꧒ Qatar for a two-day test, the last chance for ꦡKTM to finalise how they will begin the season, before the first round in the same location on March 8-10.
