2025 MotoGP rookie 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fermin Aldeguer secu♐red a first premier class p🌟odium in the French Grand Prix after a race the Spaniard says he “enjoyed a lot”.

Aldeguer started from the second row, and was i🍌n the leading group in the initial part of the race where 🙈the front runners were on slicks.

Pitting a lap later than 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alex Marquez, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Gresini Racing’s rookie lost t♌ime in the pit stops before r❀ecovering to finish on the podium for the first time in his short premier class career.

It also marked the first double-podium of Aldeguer’s💞 career having finished third behind the Marquez brothers in൲ Saturday’s Sprint.

“Today is more special than yesterday because the poไdಌium in a long race is more important,” Aldeguer told the post-race press conference at Le Mans.

“I’m very happy because we are arriving with a good progression, and for sure I am a rookie, we have to stay calm🐻, but I’m very happy for the work that I’m doing, how I manage all the sit﷽uations today – I did the same as riders with [more] experience.

“I followed Marc [Marquez] in the first part after a good battle with the slick, but when I continued one more lap with🐈 the slick I think I lost a lot of time.

“I 🗹was a little 🌳bit more nervous but I managed well.

“Also, when I changed t𝕴he bike with the rain, I don’t have a lot of experience but lap-by-lap I was going better. Finishing on the podium today is incredible fo🥃r me.”

Aldeguer added that th🌳e amount of the race that was run in the wet was daunting to begin with, but was pleased that he managed to stay calm in what was a new situation for him.

“With the rain, when I saw the laps and we had to do 20 more laps– the t🎶rack was not in the best condition, mඣy feeling wasn’t perfect, but I stayed calm, I put my little experience on the bike, I enjoyed a lot doing this little comeback,” he said.

That approach allowe𒀰d him to reel in first Maverick Vinales and then𝓡 Pedro Acosta to finish on the podium.

“I pushed my 100 per cent [to catch📖 Acosta],” he said.

“For sure, [within] the lim🔯it, because today finishing fourth would also be a good result for me, but my pace was good, I felt good with the♌ bike.

“Maybe if𒊎 I went slower, I would lose the concentration and crash.

“But in that moment I was 🌠just thinking to arrive on the podium.

“I saw Pedro [Acosta] didn’t ha🍸ve a lot of grip, so I pushed my 100 per cent to arrive but [within] the limit.”
