KTM's Jac🎉k Miller says it feels like he "can't push anymore" on the RC16 at Misano after struggling to 15th in the Mo🔥toGP Emilia Romagna Grand Prix sprint having qualified 19th.

The Australian endured a dismal Q1 on Saturday morning when he ended up 19♓th on the grid, while team-mate Brad Binder to🦩pped the session and went on to put his KTM fourth.

From the back row of the grid, Miller couldn't do much to make progress as his mar🍷ch took him to 15th and almost 20 seconds off the win.

Miller feels he is "stuck" in terms of pace around Misano compared to what he did at💖 the San Marino GP and that he is "on the wall for my riding".

“It’s like a tenth off what I did last week in the spri🌼nt, s🐻o it seems like we’re sort of just stuck around that number and that’s how it feels,” he said.

“I feel like I can’t push anymore, I feel like on the wall for ꦉmy riding, for my feeling with the bike. So, we’ve got to try and find something to move that bar.”

Tyre warm-up thwarts Binder

Off the line, Binder jumped up🌺 to second ahead of eventual winner Francesco Bagnaia, but by the end of the opening lap he had been relegated💯 to fifth and then to sixth on the next tour.

By the 🌠end of lap three, Binder was already 2.5s off the lead and would end up 8.1s back at the chequered flag in sixth.

He blamඣed this on not being able to get his medium front tyre up to temperature quick enough and nearly crashed t🧜wice on the first lap.

“My speed ౠwas𝕴 decent and to do a 1m30.6s in Q2 was my quickest lap around here,” Binder said.

“I messed up the☂ sprint because it took too long for the front tyre to come up to performance and I almost crashed and went wide in Turn 11.

“I needed two laps to get my fee🍨ling and th🎀en I could ride OK.

“It still wasn’t fast enough but at least I could push and I’m happy enough with the result bec⛎ause I thought I had ruin𝄹ed the race by the time we go to Turn 6 for the first time.

“Tomorrow I definitely need to work on that tire ⛄situation, andꦿ we should be pretty good.”

He added: “Honestly, I was really lucky to save a c൩rash at Turn 6 on lap one, and then again at Turn 11 I almost crashed again.

“So, super lucky to stay on the bike.”

KTM team manager Francesco Guidotti called it a “bitter🔴sweet Saturday”, stating: “Brad took P1 and then P4 in the two qualifying sessions, one of the ඣbest outcomes this year and we cannot complain about that.

“He also had a great start bu൲t then struggled with the front tyre temperature for the first laps and mܫissed the chance to go with the leading group.

“Jack missed Q2 on Friday by a few milliseconds. He couldn’t find a lap today and then a Sprint race from the back is a tough deal. We’ll try to be better꧟ tomorrow.𝐆”
