168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pedro Acosta finished the opening day of the Italian MotoGP as t🌠he top KTM rider, however, it wasꦅn’t a smooth-sailing day for the rookie.

Acosta went down twice, once in each practice session, including a fast tip-off at turn 13 which completely 🌳wrecked one of his RC16 machines.

Acosta was fast every time 🌠he stepped aboard his GASGAS bike, but the crashes, which he called ‘stupid’, no doubt hi💧ndered his running.

"It was a normal Friday for us I would say, but with two stupid crashes,” said Acosta. “The first one in the morning,💫 we went wide, and the second one, the tyres were not warm enough, but it is all part of the learning.

“After the second crash, we 💃improv🍌ed our feeling a lot and we were able to get a fast lap.

“However, with🐟 these crashes, we were not able to focus enough on the race pace today, so it will be our focus⭕ in the morning before the qualifying, and then we will be able to see if we can be competitive in the races."

Nearly 1.6 seconds down on Acosta was team-mate Augusto Fernandez, who continues to endur🗹e a nightmare second season in MotoGP.

The Spaniard, to🦄 no 𓆏surprise, summed up his Friday in a downbeat state as vibrations caused him havoc during practice.

"It was a very hard day, probably one of the toughest so far,” said🧸 Fernandez. “Since the start of the season, I have been struggling to feel confident wit💫h the bike in the fast corners, and Mugello is all about this, so logically I have not felt good at all today.

“We have a lot of work to do tonight, to unders🧜tand how we can have a better feeling with the front of the bike, reduce the vibrations, and hopefully we can get closer to the guys, at least Jaﷺck Miller.”
