168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jack Miller and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Augusto Fernandez’s perfo﷽rmances have been criticised by the KTM boss, as he considers whether to dish out new contracts.

Factory rider Miller and Tech3 GASGAS⛦’ Fernandez are both being outshone by respe൲ctive teammates Brad Binder and Pedro Acosta.

While Binder and Acosta are tied to the manufacturer next year, the places of Miller and Ferna🅠ndez are not guaranteed.

Now, the KTM motorsport director Pit Beirer has offered some s🎶tark words about their 🧔future.

“It is clear that with Brad and Pedro we have two riders who are fantastic, in whom we believe extremely and in whom we have a lot of confidence for the future,” he told  when asked about the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2025 MotoGP rider line-up.

“My wish hasn't changed: I want to continue 🥃marching with ou🐎r four riders.

“But your question is completely justified. Because to be honest: the current performances of Jack and✨ Augusto are a bit too little for a MotoGP place, which is so valuable.

“We are already in a phase where we still have time, but not muꦯch.

“Augusto and Jack don't need to take giant steps, but they need to be🍰 small steps forward to stabilise the package.

“That is still my wish.

“Of ꦕcourse there is movement in the rider market and other really good-sounding names are calling us and that makes🐼 you think.

“We are not yet in the aggressive phase on the bidding front where we ar🎐e having any battles with Ducati or Aprilia. But it's an ex🌟citing moment.”

The rider marke🥃t is dominated by Ducati’s decisi𝐆on between Marc Marquez, Enea Bastianini or Jorge Martin for their factory seat.

The fall-out could include KTM, or Apr🌸ilia, approaching whoever misses out on the Ducat🐭i.

Meanwhile, Miller could have another⛎ option at Honda who would value his experience to help drive their struggling project forwards.

Miller finished 2023, hisඣ first year with KTM, in 11th ♓while teammate Binder was fourth.

KTM showed a lot of faith in both Miller and Fernandez last year, when♒ it became clear t🎶hat Acosta wanted a promotion from Moto2.

They demoted Pol Espargaro, and chose to extend Fernandez's contract, 🅠in a huge boost to the younger man.

Miller was 𓆉also kept in his🐻 factory role despite the obvious potential of Acosta.

KTM have also insisted that they 🎀will not swap Miller and Acosta mid-season despite the young Spaniard's brilliance.
