"The weekend was difficult with the track conditions. It was obviously h🌠ard for us to set the bike up because the track was changing all the time," said Redding.
"Today was better for me. Inꦫ the Superpole Race, I felt good with the bike and I was able to get a good result. And in the main race this afternoon, I felt pretty good, but I went off track again, trying to make an overtake and I lost the front group.
"I had a strong pace at the end of the race, I was catching, I passed two or three guys. The pace was there but I made another ♓mistake.
"I was angry at myself for that because the pace was enough for the fourth position toda๊y so I could have battled with them. But we keep pushing, we keep trying and are l💝ooking forward to the next race in Phillip Island."
