A fast accident in the closing minutes of Friday afternoon practice at the Spanish MotoGP left 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Brad Binder to🌄 watch helplessly from the sidelines as he lost out o🤪n a top-ten place by 0.1s.

That means the 2023 Jerez runner-up will join KTM tea🌳m-mate Jack Miller and wild-card Dani Pedrosa in trying to battle through Saturday’s Qualifying 1.

Yet Binder insisted there was still plenty to be hapཧpy about.

“Honest♕ly, today was great,” Binder said. “This morning we tried something different on the front fork and I felt so much better. I was able to brake hard and enter fast again like I normally can. So that was super positive.

“And this afternoon I was really quick from the first lap. Unfortunatཧely, when I went to give it a push at the end there, I lost the front but I was on a r♎eally good lap.

“I feel like we've got a good opportunity to be fast. It’s a pity we need to climb th🌸rough the Q1 bec🌼ause of the crash. But other than that, I'm happy. I think we'll be OK.

“I think I was much faster today than I was last year. Felt better. Evꦫerything was working better. It's just I messed up at the end.”

Miller and Pedrosa al💧so suffered falls in the afternoon and were left in 13th and 14th pl🐻aces.

Pedrosa, the quickest RC16 in eighth this morning, explaine෴d: “In the morning we did a good job and we were confident for the afternoon. Unfortunately, in theꩲ afternoon, I was having a hard time with one of the bikes.

“So mid-session I decided to quit that bike and took the other bike. Immediately I felt poꩲsitive. Unfortunately, I pushed a bit too early and I crashed, so maybe the tyre wasn't ready or something.

“And then I could not continue with the bike I liked. So I had to gꦰo back to the oth𒁃er bike and finished the session in the best way possible, but it wasn't enough to go to Q2.”

With Augusto Fernandez just 22nd, GASGAS rookie star Pedro Ac﷽osta is the onl🍸y RC16 rider so far confirmed in Qualifying 2, with sixth place on Friday.
