168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Francesco Bagnaia rode last year’s Ducati, and this year’s version, on Tuesday in Sepang෴.

The MotoGP champion 🤡will race with the updated spec of the Desmosedici when his title defence gets underway.

The transition onto a new bike conti🌼nued on the first day of the Sepang test where Bagnaia did some laps with each of his bikes.

“Today we were focusing a lot on two 🦹specs, ‘2ꦅ3 and ‘24,” he said.

“I’m happy that, finally in the last 💖exit, I decided to continue with the ‘🤪24.

“I think that I have good potential, more on the braking. W🐭e are adjusting th🥃e power delivery.

“I tried the long fo🏅rks, like other Ducati riders used last year, and the feeling was good. But the feeling is not the same as the short ones, so we still have something to improve.

“Considering the day, the amount of laps ✨I did, I’m quite happy.

“T🧸he aero we will try tomorrow, the 🍰new fairing. It’s something important, it will take a lot of time.

“Today was about understanding the two bikes. To﷽morrow is important for the aero.”

Ba🐷gnaia explained how the latest-spec Ducati is better even that the d♏ominant machine he rode last season.

“The way theᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚy put the engine is different, the weight is different,” he said.

“What I prefer is the braking. Itꩵ’s something I understood in Valencia.

“The acceleration and power delivery 🍷is dif🍃ferent. It’s more nervous.

“We are taking c🌟are, we made a step in front. The best time today was with used tyres.

“Right now, I 𝄹like it more for the braking. It asks me to brake m💞ore.

“The top speed is very꧙ similar. During the day we improved a lot. The wind increased so it was difficult to understand if we improve෴d acceleration.”

Bagnaia was 16th-fastes♏t on Tuesday, the opening day in Sepang. He trailed pace-setter J𓆏orge Martin by +0.862s.

Pramac's Martin, who Bagnaia edged to win the 2023 championship, will join him in ri𒈔ding a GP24 this season.

Gresini and VR46 r🐠iders - Marc Marquez, Alex Marquez, Marco Bezzecchi and Fabio di Giannantonio - will ride the GP23, the bike that Bagnaia and Martin battled with last year.
