Qualifying fourth on Saturday at Le Mans, Gresini's Aldeguer bested polesitter 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fabio Quartararo in a hard late fight𒁏 to claim the final podium spot.

Aldeguer shared the podium at🌺 Le Mans on Saturday with Marc Marquez and Alex Marquez, whom he has a close relationship with.

He said this experience was “very specia𝐆l” for himﷺ.

“At the end, they spent a lot of time together and I’m very close to them,” he told th♋e official Mo🔯toGP website.

“We have a good relationship, also all Gresini famᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚily has a nice day. It’s incredible because to be on 𓆏my first podium with my idol and my team-mate is very special for me.

“For𒁃 sure, tomorrow I want more, but we have to stay calm and another podium I📖’d be happy with.”

He also noted that the Marquez brothers helped him get on te🐟rms with Quartararo, as their respective battles with the Yamaha brought Aldeguer into play.

“Marc and Alex helped me because they had a little🅺 bit of gap after Pecco [Bagnaia] crashed,” Aldeguer said.

“And with the battle I arrived and 🔯I said ‘toda🐟y I have to do a podium’.

“Twඣo ti😼mes I’ve been fourth in a sprint and now I had to do a third.

“We are strong in the brake point, also the🦩 first and ✅second sector.

“We ꧋have a better bike than Quartararo, but for sure he is riding in an incredible style and it was a nice battle.”

Aldeguer’s signing by Ducati to join the Gresini team for 2025 raised♓ some eyebrows as last year’s Moto2 campaign wore on, as the Spaniard failed to impress in the same way he did in 2023.

But he praised the Italian marque for not putting pressure on him ꦕto perform.

“I’m 𓃲so𒁏 happy. It’s an incredible moment for me,” he added.

“We have the speed, we have the pace to fight in the top five in thes⛦e last races.

“T🌳he 🦩feeling was very good and also the speed, but a little mistake, we need more experience to fight with these top five riders.

“But today is our day, finishing third with a nice battle with Pecco in the star🦂t and after with Fabio.

“It was very nice. Just this. I have to say thank you to the Gresini 🥂people, all of Ducati, because they helped me a lot.

“They don’t put any pressure on me and this is 𓂃important for a roo꧃kie rider. I’m enjoying a lot the feeling on the bike.”
