168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pedro Acosta has pinpointed the end-of-month MotoGP test at🔥 J𒊎erez as “maybe the most important day of our season”.

Scheduled for Monday, 28 A༒pril, the day after the Spanish Grand Prix, the one-day outing will be the first official testing opportunity since pre-season wrapped up in Buriram.

“It is maybe the 🦋most important day of our season,” Acosta said of the Jerez test. “We have to try many things.”

Like all KTM riders, Acosta has endured a disappointing start💜 to the 2025 season.

The young Spaniard, promoted to the factory team on the back of a stellar rookie campaign featuring five Grand Prix podiums,🌠 has only scored 16 points so far this season, for 13th in the world championsh𝄹ip.

That compares with 54-points and fourth in the world championship after the opening t𝄹hree rounds of his rookie season at Tech3.

Despite strong qualifying results - 7th, 5th and 4th respectively - Acosta and his RC16 have struggled to convert one-lap speed into race performa♛nce.

“Talking about myself, we𒁏 are much more competitive than last year in qualifying. Good,” 𝕴he said.

“But then we go to the Sprint races and the grip suddenly is❀ like [gone].

“When we have grip, it's easy to be competitive… But it's difficult to understand why there is this drop in performance between Q2 and the Sprint rac🐼e.”

Vibration Woes Continue for KTM 

A key issue for Acosta is persistent rear-wheel vibꩵration.

“Always more or less when I talk about problems, I am talking about vibrations," he said. "It's a topic every time I enter the box. We need to find a solution because it's already one year lꦜike this.”

The Spaniard🌱 made a distinction between typical 'chatter', which can often be seen on🤡 TV, and the unsettling vibration he’s experiencing.

“For me, chatter⭕ is 🃏when the rear or the front wheel is jumping, like the save of Quartararo in Q1 [at COTA]. 

“Vi🅺bration I feel when I touch the throttle and the rear wheel is like [shaking]. It's not jumping, but it's making [life] difficꦯult. 

"And it's like aꦡ ꦰsnowball, the vibration of the whole bike becomes bigger, bigger, bigger.”

The large 'salad box' at the back of t🅠he KTM this season, perhaps housing a mass damper, is assumed to be an attempt to soothe the vibrations.

Factory team-mate Brad B𝓀inder is currently the top KTM rider, in eleventh in the world championship, with Tech3 riders Enea B꧟astianini 12th and Maverick Vinales 17th.

The final grand prix before the Jerez weekend is next weeken🍸d's Qatar round, where Acosta thrilled on his MotoGP debut one year ago and KTM took a pair of runner-up finishes with Binder.
