Portimao Moto2: Dixon: 'We have a good set-up for Qatar', finishes test P4

Jake Dixon has closed out the Official Portimao Moto2 test fourth fastest on combined times, despite being relegated to eighth come t🐠he end of day three.
The new GASGAS Aspar Team rider, who topped day one before finishing fourth on day two, held onto a top five position courtesy of hiܫs quickest day two time.
Dixon’s best lap d❀uring Monday’s final day of action came during the seco𒀰nd session (S8 of the test) as he set a 1:42.495s, which was over four tenths off the time he set a day prior.
But with that said, Dixon feels he’s got the ‘set-up’ of his Kalex machine where it needs to be for next month’s season opener, despite suffering a crash during his final t𒁃ime attack run.
Speaking after the three day test, Dixon sai𝕴d: "We close the Portimao test wit⛎h a good pace, an average of 1:42s, although when I was looking for a time attack, I crashed.
"In th𒉰e last run I was heading for a 1:41 but in the last two corners I had my foot resting on the brake lever and that p🐬revented me from achieving it.
"The positive tಌhing is that we have a good set-up for the first race, I am alreadyౠ looking forward to competing in Qatar."
After finishing tenth on day two, Dixon’s team-mate Albert Arenas was one of the biggest m✨overs during day three.
The 2020 Moto3 champion found close to seven tenths during session 8 as he improved to sixth place on t💮he overall combined times.  🅺;
Arenas added: "We finish testing and continue to 🅷improve and le🃏arn things from this new bike.
"I'm happy with the consistency we've achi🐎eved, we've been fast and we've stayed close to my best time consisteওntly, always finishing in the top ten.
"I want to thank the 🧜team for alꦏl their work. Now we have to rest for a few days and immediately prepare to travel to Qatar."
