Sepang MotoGP Test: Joan Mir: ‘Bike completely different to before, riding more like a Honda style’

Outside the top ten come the end of the three day Sepang MotoGP test, Mir and Honda appear to be far from challenging for wins although steps forward were made 🔥in terms of pace and his feelings with the bike throughout.
Mir finished just over a tenth down on eight-time world champion teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez, who also failed to record a top ten result on ⛄day three, however, Marquez chose not to set a time attack late on, as opposed to many of the riders around him.

So w🌟hat was Mir’s takeaway from his first ‘serious’ test with the RC213V?
Well, due to the significant upgrades broug🤡ht by Honda, the Spaniard had a ‘completely different’ bike compared to what he rode previously, although he conclud🌠ed the test feeling positive about his position.
"The bike is co💦mpletely different to the one I tried before, the riding style is huge how i🦋t’s changed," said Mir.
"[I’m] happy with the progres💟s that we are doing, I feel stronger than yesterday and I feel the bike is🎶 more like mine and I am able to ride in a better way than yesterday.
"Happy overall, t🅷he team works pretty well during these thr♌ee days and this is a boost for the start of the season."

Uttering similar comments to Marquez, but also his own comments following day one, Mir still felt as though Honda is lacking pace compared𒁃 to its rivals, which was again highlighted by&nb⛦sp;the lap times.
Seven Ducatis and two Apr😼ilias finished inside the top nine, while all nine of those riders were quicker than Mir by at least four tenths or more.
With the gaps an obvious worry, Mir is still remaining upbeat: "For sure ☂we are still a bit far♛, but every day we are closer. So this is very important that every day we feel better with the bike, that I’m riding more like a Honda style, I’m riding in a completely different way now and this is a way that I enjoy.
"These days I learned a lot, the team helped me a lot to help me understand how t♒o be competitive with this bike, and we are following the good steps, but I’m still a rookie with 🐻this bike."
