Seventh in Saturday’s WorldSBK Race 1, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Danilo Petrucci had late race pace which was again the case during Suℱn💖day’s double-header.

Petrucci managed to claw his way back through the field following a difficult s🌼tart t🥀o Race 2.

“A top five is always a good result even thouꦜgh it's our minimum target,” said Petrucci. “We were the top independents in Race 2 and ܫbrought home some points, so it works!

“This was probably one of our less favourable tracks due to lo🐟w grip and tire management.

“Speaking generally, I'm happy because I feel really good with the bike, and the team is doing a great job, so I can't wait to gꦉo to Assen, which on the other side is one of my favourite circuits.

“Hopefully, the weather will be nice and cool. There will be good💖 grip in the fast corners, and I can't wait to tackle those fifth gear corners with this Ducati Panigale V4 R, which I feel increasingly comfortable with.”

While Petrucci enjoyed another strong round, fellow satellite Ducati rider Michael Rinaldi sufferꦉed a crash after contact with Andrea Locatelli and Axel 🃏Bassani, in Race 2.

“Di𓆉fficult weeke🌜nd, which started badly and ended worse,” said Rinaldi. “In turn 4 I was accelerating together with Locatelli but I was forced to choose the inside line and involuntarily touched Axel Bassani.

“These things h💃appen. This is a racing accident in which I involved another innocent rider to whom I apologize.

“Let๊'s archive everything and think about the next one.ꦚ”
