Redding, who joined BMW at 🔯the beginning of the 2022 season, has seen the German manufacturer make a raft of changes in an attempt to bring their M 1000 RR closer to the front of WorldSBK.

Some of the upgrades have had a tremendous effect, leading to Redding being able to fight the likes of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Toprak Razgatlioglu, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alvaro Bautista and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jonathan Rea at venues such as𒈔 Most, Donington Park and Magny-Cours.

However, the gap between BMW and the leading manufacturers was again a worry for large parts🐭 of last season, which led to Redding being unable to crack the top seven positions in the championship.

D✅espite bringing a new aero package to the front of its bike for 2023, Redding still feels as though BMW are set in their ways.

Speaking to GPOne.com, Redding said: “I signed the contract because I wanted to win and they told me they would do what I wanted to win. And they made changes. The fork and brakes have chꩲanged, but some things will never change and you have to accept that”.

But Redding, who has not 🔯won a WorldSBK race since Race 2 of the Argentina round in 2021 whilst competing for Aruba.it💟 Ducati, believes BMW’s prowess when it comes to selling motorcycles is ‘maybe’ trumping their desire to become a winning force in racing. 

“I don't know why,👍 maybe it's more related to marketing,” added Redding. “I want to win the championship and so do they, but maybe selling motorcycles 🎉interests them more than winning the World Championship.”

Redding is again in WorldSBK action this week as testing continues at Portimao. 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Michael Van Der Mark - Redding’s team-mate - is also set for action as are the Bonovo Action BMW pair of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Loris Baz and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Garrett Gerloff. 

Redding finished last week’s two-day Jerez test in 12th place, 1.4s down on Razgatlioglu while also💝 finishing as the second fastest BMW rider after Baz narrowly pipped🤪 him to P11.
