168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Luca Marini insists he’s been pushing at 100% every lap while awaiting mওuch needed technical progress from the Honda RC213V.

The Italian, a double MotoGP pole and podium finisher at VR46, has endured a torrid start to his Repsol care🦋er and is the only full-time rider without a point in 2024.

To put that into perspective, the top Honda competitor - team-m๊ate Joan Mir - has scored just 12 out of a possible 185 points. Nonetheless, Marini has be✃en in last place during 7 of the 10 races so far, including Sprints.

With test riderꦯ Stefan Bradl’s recent Honda prototype being given a thumbs down by all four race riders, the standard bikes were again used during last weeke🐻nd’s French MotoGP.

Marini was at the back in both Le Mans races but explained that - while the delivery of technical updates is out of his hands - he can experiment with body position and riding style, taking inspiration from Ducati’s ti൩tle leaders Jorge Martin and Francesco Bagnaia.

“I'm trying [despite the results]. I'm trying to work on my style or my position because now you can see that Pecco and Martin can make the di🃏fference with their body,” Marini said.

“So only those two are pushing in this way, with their body below the bike 𝔍and make the bike turn.

“S🐻o for me, I think that this will be the key for the MotoGP, for the next years. Everybody is trying to ma🥀ke this change.

“So I'm working on it, but every lap I'm pushing a😼t 100%.”

Honda riders are mainly suffering with a lack of turning and acceleration, issues they hope will be add𝕴ressed during this ꦬweek’s private test at Mugello.

So now we have a lot of work to do in Mugello, focus on the new bike,” Marini said before leaving Le Mans. 🧸“I'm sure that the new upgrades will bring us more towards the top, not a lot, but a little bit.

“We have good expectations about that test. 

"For sure it will not change [our situation] day and night, but for me it can be a very good improvement. And especially, following that dir💙ection, we can make other steps for the end of the season.”

If♊ Honda progress was made at Mugello, 🔥the new parts could be used during next weekend's Catalan round.
