168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Miller, who was fastest in FP1, then went on to claim P2 on combin🐼ed times behind Johann Zarco in what was a much more representative second MotoGP practice in Austri♎a.  

Overnight rain ha🐠d left the Red Bull Ring damp for the start of FP1, but as is so often the case in such conditions, Miller appeared to be right at home finishing six tenths clear of Zarco.

“T🍒he bike is working well. I’m enjoying🌟 it a lot,” said Miller.

The Australian also went on to share his thoughts about the new chicane which𒉰 prior to the weekend getting underway w💝as thought to have potentially taken some of Ducati’s straight-line speed advantage away.

However, based on the opening day of practice the Bologna Bullets seem to be just fine - six Ducatis finished inside the top seven wꦛith only reigning MotoGP champion Quartararo able to get amo꧋ngst them. 

"The new chicane iౠs a nice addition to the track," stated Mil♍ler. "It’s completely blind heading in there and into the braking zone. In the first free practice there were a lot of guys running wide because it comes up on you really quickly. 

• Spri⛦nt race format ‘a good idea, it’s nice to watch, dღouble points…’ - Zarco

"But getting the understanding of i🗹t is really fun. You have a lot of changes of camber when you go in so the bike is moving around a lot and I’m burying the rear brake a lot, getting it sliding going in before the most aggressive change of direction on ♒the calendar. 

"It’s a lot of fun and it spices it up. It makes turn three a better⭕ corner for overtaking and for🌸 sure it’s a lot safer."

During Miller’s run of fast la𓆉p𝄹s in the closing stages of FP2, KTM’s Miguel Oliveira suffered a strange crash whilst just ahead of the Ducati rider. 

Oliveira ran wide on the exit of turn nine before losing control of his RC16 when attem♛pting to come ༺back across the curb.

Worried he might be collected in the process, Miller said: "I was worried about where the bike was going. You saw me sit up and grab the brakes and the best thing for me to do was accelerate past him because he📖 was decelerating. 

"But yeah he 🀅sort of went off-track and then as he came across the curbs. Obviously he tried to come across the curb with the wrong angle and a 💫little bit too slow. 

"But for sure it looked l♒ike he was coming back ac🌜ross my line for a moment but then it levelled out and the hills sort of pulled him straight again."

Is the new MotoGP-specific chicane in Austria an even bigger advantage for Ducati than before? 

As mentioned above, Ducati were expected to be slightly more affected by the new chicane than others, however, most of the Italian manufacturer’s riders proved that braking and acceleration on the eไxit of the chicane were just as big a benefit as the previous version of the Red Bull Ring was.  

It’s difficult to say that a circuit which has seen Ducati win six from eigh💧t races could suit them even more following an adjustment, 🌸but that’s precisely what Zarco believes. 

"My opini꧂on on the new chicane is what I was thinking, which is that it’s quite slow. So we kept a good advantage with the Ducati and maybe we c♚an use even better our advantage on the brakes and acceleration," added the French rider. 

"I’m👍 happy for this and it also makes turn three easier because you arrive slower and you have more possibili🌺ties in turn three. 

"Then you 𝓡try things during laps, you don’t miss your la꧟ps and then you can repeat. For this reason I was happy to be on the bike. 

ꦑ"We can work better with the team and I hope in the dry we can move forward to then play with the bike and be competitive."
