But he then explaꦰined how he is trying to adဣapt his style.
“This year I had a bit of aℱ different winter,” Irwin 🉐said.
“I rode my pit bike a lot mor꧅e, and just worked on body position. I changed my trai𒈔ning a lot.
“It’s nice to get reacqua𒅌inted with the guys. You want to get comfortable on the bike, and e🐽valuate how the body feels after making physical changes.
“It has been enjoyable. The new segment is 🐻really enjoyable.
“T10 is now really fast right-handerಞ. A lot of the guys are having fun through it. This may be our job but we like having fun on bikes!
“After t🅺hat, it🀅 has character. 12, 13 and 14 is different to what I’ve ever rode. Kudos to the track.
“The fastest aspect doesn’t matter. I just wanted to get comfortable with the bike, and ♓reacquainted to these Superbikes which are fast into T1.
“It’s nice to feel comfortable, and we are comfortable in ourselves. We aren’t too worried about lap times♊.”
Irwin has retired from road racing🌠 meani⛄ng that BSB will be his full focus in 2025.
