“It was the out-lap. He goes wide, tryingไ to overtake me, cutting my line.

“I wasn’t able to do anything. Then he was wide, I was in my territory, then hꦰe touched me. It was useless, from my poജint of view.”

Reign꧟ing MotoGP champion Bagnaia was fifth-fastest on the second day of preseason testing in Sepang, while Espa🔯rgaro was third-fastest on a day marred by rain.

Bagnaia chatted afterwards to ex-teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jack Miller who got his first taste of the KTM bike in wet conditions - the machinery that aided Miguel Oliveira in 🐻winning two races in the rain last season.

“I asked if he understood why Miguel was so fast in the wet last year! He said ‘it’s a different bike’,” Bagnai🐲a said.

“We have an advantage in brakiജng. But assimilatiꦓon? KTM in the wet is very competitive. I was very curious about it.

“The gr♉ip was quite strange. In some corners it was slippery, in other corners it was grippy. I didn’t understand why.

“My feeling in the wet was so much better than last y🥃eꦆar. It helped me a lot.

“We didn’t do any laps in the dry. My feeling is ꧋comfortable. It is a step forwards from [Friday].”
