168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Maverick Vinales had struggled to adapt fully to the new Aprilia RS-GP24 bike in Sepang and on day-one of the Qatar MotoGP test.

But that is no longer the case after finding the best aero package to 🎃suit his riding style. 

Vinales, like team-mat☂e Aleix Espargaro and Trackhouse Racing’s Raul Fernandez, was fast thr🐻oughout the final day of pre-season testing.

Vinales was one of the few rid☂ersꦡ able to pose a serious threat to Ducati, who ended the test fastest with Francesco Bagnaia.

Vinales tol💎d MotoGP.com: “From my side it has been good. The good thing is that we found the best aero package for us.

“That’s fantastic because we solved this pro🎐blem that we had in Sepang and the first day here in Qatar. Right now it is okay.

“Now I need to work a bit more on the electronics because with the new engine I’m not on point, especially on the engine brake so it’s something we will do on t💞he race weekend.”

At Sepang it seeme💙d as though KTജM were best prepared to launch a challenge against Ducati in 2024.

And although that might still be the case when racing begins, Aprilia seemed 🌳to take a bigger step forward compared to th🌱e Austrian brand in Qatar.

Choosing not to play down his chances given the outright potential of the RS-GP machine, Vinales said they can be competitive if they d🌜o things correctly at the first round.

“Of course we have a chance because the bike is fast but we n𝓰eed to analyse well thi♒s test and also the race.

“Race one to race two will be completely different. It’s always th👍e case. You need to be calm at the beginning of the se💝ason.”
