168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jack Miller has been told to forget about the speculation over his MotoGP future and to💧 bring a new “mental approach” this☂ season by the KTM boss.

Francesco G🌟uidotti has challenged Miller but also vowed to support him in the final year of his KT🌜M contract.

The poꦅpular Australian foughꦦt off speculation last season that he would be replaced by Pedro Acosta, but is now entering crunch time with every manufacturer scouring the market ahead of a busy silly season.

Team manager Gu✤idotti said about the rumours over Miller’s KTM seat: 🗹“I don’t know if he really likes it or not.

“Som෴etimes it’s difficult to understand what he has in his mind.

“He’s in a phaౠse of life where he has to make a big decision. It’s in his hands.

“He’s almost 30. For a𒊎 rider he’s still pretty young if he wa𒈔nts to continue at a certain level.

“But🃏, as he said, the youngers are coming very quick♔ly.

“He needs to behave this year, perhaps as he’s ne🐬ver done before.

“Hඣe is the best one, in team effort. He’s the master. He’s perfect with the team and with his teammܫate.

“Wh꧂en you reach a level, it’s a matter o𝓡f mental approach.

“He must be really bౠrave, really consistent, really smart to use the correct mental approach this season.

“The speculation abo🍷ut the r𓃲iders market? It has to be forgotten.

“You never know what to expect from Jack.

“He’s able 💞to do everythin🎐g, and nothing, at the same time!

“Everything is𝔍 in his hands. We will try to support him in every way possible.

“Jack is Jack… there are few words to add…”

Last ꦓseason, Miller’s first since swapping Ducati for KTM, he finished 11th in the MotoGP standings.

He crashed out of the lead in the season-finale at Valencia t🍌o compound a disappointing year.

Bu⭕t meanwhile his teammate Brad Binder soared into fourth, the highest-placed 🌞non-Ducati.

And Binder, notoriously n🍰ot a fan of testing, has been praised by Guidotti for bringing a new attitude to Sepang this year.

“We improved compared ꧋to last year,” Guidotti said.

“The approach of Brad is different to before.

“Every time you set a limit… last year he was fourth, the best result in MotoGP for him, he wants to take a stepꦚ ahead.

“You always have to change something.

“The important t꧒hing is th♏e combo. The riders’ feeling of the bike that we supply.

“We have t🅘o find the best combo to constantly fight in th꧟e top three.”

Guidotti analysed the changes Binder must make to improve upon finishing fourth: “Also, the mental approach and the self-confi🦂dence he can have in the season.

“He trusts the bike more, he trusts the 💯people more, and of course he must trust himself more.

“It’s more than speed. He showed us, during his approach at the test, it was🍒 differen🀅t. More mature.”

KTM, who have𓄧 ambitious plans to expand upon their four-bike presence on the grid, have also welcomed the prodigious Pedro Acosta into the premier class with Tech3 GASGAS.

They could be the manufacturer꧑ t🐼o most closely combat Ducati this year.

Guidot🅺ti reflected on their Sepang test: 🧜“Ten days of very intense days of testing.

“It’s always difficul🅰t to say. We know, more🔯 or less, where we are.

“It’s always difficult to know where the conten🗹ders are.

“Once back on track, you can see the level.

“We moved forward but the contenders looked like they did not rest a lot during the 💃winter.

“We have to take it day by day,♏ and race ﷺby pace. This is the best way to face a championship of 21 races.

“There is always ♋a big motivation when we start, and a bigger motivation when we’re on the way.

“You choose this job so it is not a big sacrifice. It’s a huge motivation. We have a target꧙ set, we’re doing everything possible to catch it.

“Everything i⛎s possible. We didn’t set a low tar🦹get.

“We want to loo💯k at the top target, and try to get it. It will be more difficult this ye𒅌ar.

“We say the same every year. The level of MotoGP i🍰s getting crazy every year.

“The level of riders, the technolog﷽y, the effort of the manufacturers…

“We will try. We will fight🧸 for it. But we are not alone.

“We can do something better than last year.”
