168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pedro Acosta rode on Friday in practice for the Thailand MotoGP, days after be💧ing ruled out of the grand prix in Australia.

The Tech3 GASGAS rider fell in Saturday’s sprint in Australia and injured a shoulder, forcing him to withdraw from the featur𒆙e race.

But in Buriram he has returned swiftly, and has avoided 🍌s♌urgery on the damage.

Acosta described his condition after returning to the bike: “Good. I was taking time to warm up. I don’t normally warm up before the ses♑sion…

“It took me three, four, five laps tꦉo warm up again.

“A♈fter I warmed up, I was okay, it was not painful.

“The pain is there but it’ℱs not crazy, so we need to be happy.”

Acosta was seventh-fastest on Friday. Only Maverick Vinales (fifth) was a 𒉰faster non-Ducati rider.

The sensational rookie insists the pain in his shoulder did not prohibit his ridin�▨�g too much.

“No. In FP1 we need🥂ed to adjust the bike a bit, we opened the handlebars and made it more wide,” he explained.

“On one side, you can hold the bike better with you𒁃r legs.

“You see normally when I brake I always hold out my leg, but today I tried to hold the bi🦂ke more w🎃ith my legs.

“For me, this is the most s🐼tressful session of the whole we🔴ekend.”

Acosta said about his shoulder: “It’s not brokeඣn enough to have surgeryౠ!

“It’s fine. The pain will go awa🌠y in weeks. We need physiotherapy.”

His attention turns to Saturday in Thailand.

“We need to improve a lot of things,” Acosta said. “Today was a decision day, to decide which fairing to♏ take from now until the end of the season.

“I tri🍰ed both in FP1. They have positives and negatives.

“They may brinꦑg us another way of riding the bike. But they also have negatives.”
