168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Francesco Bagnaia arrives at this weekend's French MotoGP determined to improve upon last year's third-place finish, when he narrowly missed out on victory a🌳fter a fierce three-way battle with Jorge Martin and Marc Marquez.

Currently third in the 2025 World Championship standings behind Alex and Marc Marquez, Bagnaia’s only victory so far this season came wheꦬn new team-mate Marc fell from the lead in COTA.

But the Italian couldn’t fully capitalise on Marc’s latest mistake, at Jerez, where Bagnaia took the chequered flag in a frustrated third behind Alex Marquez and Yamaha’s Fabio Quarta💞raro.

A day of post-racing followed, w💜here Bagnaia re-evaluated a mystery c♌omponent previously set aside during winter testing - and already used by Marc.

“We tested something that Marc was already usin✤g and we will try to use it ෴also," Bagnaia confirmed to MotoGP.com on Thursday. 

"Un🌄luckily, the conditions with the wind weren't the best, and it was difficult to find an improvement in the set-up.

“So we are starting with the same setup and we’ll just have something different that I wasn't uꦛsing before.”

Pressed to ꦑidentify exactly what t𒈔he new element might be, Bagnaia replied: “No, I can’t!”

Despite finishing on the wrong end of last year’s victory battle - and absent from the list of five different Ducati riders to have wonꦓ at Le Mans in the last five years - the former double🅺 champion is a fan of the French track and believes improvements in two key corners could make the difference this weekend.

“I hope that I could do the same [as last year], but this time with me winning," Ba🌠gnaia smiled. "I think it's a good track for me. If I could improve on the areas where last year I was struggling, that were corner 3 and corner 9 I can have a chance to fight for it.”

Corne💞rs 3 and 9 are part of the Dunlop and Chemin A💃ux Boeufs chicanes.

“I feel good. I always like to ride hereꦐ. I love the layout, I love the fans. So I feel ready like always,” he added. “It will be important to work like we are doing in the last races, but this time I would like to push a bit more.

“I need to fight for the rꦰesults❀ and maybe to win.”

Bagnaia and Alex Marquez are the only riders to have scored points in all ten races so fa🍸r this season.

After five 𝓰rounds of last year, Bagnaia 💧had already suffered three non-scores, including a Le Mans Sprint DNF due to a technical issue.
