168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Scott Redding bounced back at his home WorldSBK round as he finally got h🌟is 2024 seas꧑on kickstarted.

With no top five finishes prior to Donington Park, Redding secured P4 in both Sunday ra🌸ces, while also challenging for a podium in Race 1 before suffering a DNF.

"I'm just hap𓂃py with how the weekend has gone and how it has finished up," said a very happy Re💝dding. 

"I gained a lot🎀 of confidence and it was a big change for a race weekend. The Superpole Race was not good but not bad. 

"I'm still happy to finish ☂fourth in a Superpole Race; if y🍸ou had told me that [I would be fourth in a Superpole Race] I would have ripped your arm off. 

"I'm not fully happy tho♒ugh because I think I could have had that podium but I messed up the start a bit. I felt like at Donington they🔴 held the lights a little bit longer than we're used to so the hand was definitely trying to go. 

"Then you're in t🍃he mix and I lost that group but slowly I was catching Jonathan [Rea] and I thought that if I was closer then maybe it was there. But I'm still happy with fourth ꦦand the feeling in the race."

In Race ♏2 Redding held off Alvaro Bautista in fine fashion as he didn🌌't allow the two-time champion to get within a second.

Redding added: "R𒈔ace 2 I felt really good, ꦏjust tried to stay calm. I didn't want to do anything silly and wasn't going to beat the first two guys. 

"So I stayed in my position and then Alex [Lowesꦏ] passed me and I was staying there, feeling good, but I was struggling wit😼h the brake. 

"I had to adjust it 🤡five times per lap and then I was struggl꧋ing with arm pump riding with one arm. Then I was trying to manage the gap behind, manage the gap in front and then I made a small mistake. 

"It was quite intense because I was having a good weekend and wanted to f🎶inish strong. Having the pressure of Alvaro behind; he's normally quite fast at the end 🐭of races so I had a lot of stress but it was worthwhile. 

🌟"The big thing for me this weekend was building confidence and knowing you can do it and proving to myself I can do it🅺. 

"But not riding at the front f🍷or such a long time is mentally different than racing when you're 🍨in 15th position. That was the most difficult thing. 

"I was fighting with myself to stay calm in the race and 🔯not make mistakes. I did well but hopefully be🌃ing at the front more, it will come back to me."

With Bonovo leaving BMW next season and Redding's lack of form heading into Donington Pa🏅rk, questions were being asked about his future.

But Redding feels he still has a lot to offဣer: "You need to show that 💙you have got it. For myself and for everyone. 

"A lot of people have been writing me off and social media is the worst for it. But if people are writing🤪 it they are thinking it. 

"I know I have a lot of figꩲht left in me and it's not the end of me. It's good to have this momentum and go home gaining confidence instead of losing confidence is a big factor."
