168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo has shown very good race pace, enough to contend for big points, however, concerns in time attack mode have the Yamaha rider worried about his MotoGP chances again in 2024.

Quartararo has not been able to match many of the Ducati rid⛦ers atꦇ Sepang over one lap, and as a result was left admitting that the same problems exist.

“Basically, it is more or less the sam🌠e,” began Quartararo. “I was happy when I did theಌ 57.5s but this is the limit. We are far.

“We find the limit quite easily because I made four laps in 57.꧑5s/57.6s - there is no one lap that♈ is clearly better than the other one.

“This is a little bit difficult to un🅷derstand. I know where we need to improve but how, I don’t know.”

Looking forward to the final pre-season test 🦹at Qatar, Quartararo is unsure if they’re will be new parts to try.

What he does expect is a lot of ideas to be generated as they l𝓰oo🦋k to close the gap.

Quartararo said: “Some new parts I don’t know but we will have some new ideas. Today, from 10 in the morning until 2:30 w♐e never stopped.

“The set🌺-up changed from one exit to the next and we fou⭕nd some positives and negatives and some direction.

“For the engineers it’s good to see 𒅌what bike we have, what the positives and negatives are and what we need for Qatar. But what we need is more than just set-up [🦂changes].

Problems for Quartararo remain in terms of electronic and mechanical grip, which he ꦫfeels is the cause of his struggles over one lap.

“I think it’s ඣboth,” said the Frenchman. “Both are the problem. Not the problem but the solution to be in [the battle] for 4-8.

“This is what we have to find and I think thi🌳s is really important. On the pace, we are fast like last year. We are not in the top but we have 😼a good chance.

“But if we start P11 then you stay there no matter what your pace is. This is why we are ty🧸riඣng to find a solution with grip to improve.”
