168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jack Miller has delivered an optimistic assessment of KTM’s readiness for the 2024 MotoGP season.

The Austrian manufacturer caught the eye during 𝐆the three-day presea🧔son Sepang test, along with Aprilia, by using bold aerodynamics.

And Pedro Acosta, the prodigious rookie with Tech3 GASGAS, shone particularly on the opening day to꧟ raise optimism within the KTM camp.

Facಞtory rider Miller said: “The bike is working pretty well. I’m really happy with the improvements we’ve made throughout the winter.

“I did the faste༺st lap tha🌞t I’ve ever done, around here.

“Still ✨a second off the other b🌳oys, so we need to find a little bit more. But we’ll find it come race time.

“I feel more confideဣnt going into racin💙g this year than I did last year.

“We were able to iron out some of the things that we needed to, to understand the package going𒁃 forward.

“Another positive da🔥y. I’m keen for a sleep, to reflect on this test, and understand where I can find another second!”

Miller confirmed that KTM have almost finalised the set-up for the bike which will begin the ♔MotoGP season.

“Pretty much, we know what we want,” he said. “Some version of it. We’ve tried co♑untless version this week.

“൩We 𝄹have a clear understanding. We know where we’re going.

“In terms of electronics, whatever♈ we’ve brought has been a big improvement.

“Th✱ere♛ are still things to iron out with it, obviously being a new system.

“But it’s working really well.”

Miller said about similarities to the 2023 bike: “The engine is pretty similar♔.

“We🏅 didn’t need 🌺to reinvent the wheel when it comes to an engine.

“Our engine was quite strong. It needed po🥂lishing. And that’s what they were able to do.”

But not everything is perfect.

“My weakness today? When I wanted🐼 to put a time attack together, putting the r🍎ear in shape,” Miller said on Thursday.

“I had countless highside moments.

“It just comes down to… there are variables. Lean angle, position. You feel like you are driving re🌜ally well, but all of a sudden you pick the bike up and the griꦿp goes away.

“It’s all to do with electronics.”

Miller finished 11th la♑st year, his first since swapping Ducati for KTM.

But he trailed teammate Brad Binderܫ who w🐎as an outsider in the title battle before finishing fourth.

T🃏he pressure will ramp up, particularly on Miller, with the arrival of Acosta into the premier clas✱s.

Miller ended Thursday, the las✅t day of the Sepang🉐 test, 14th-quickest.

MotoGP will head to Qa𝐆tar for a two-day test, the last chance for KTM to finalise how they will🍃 begin the season, before the first round in the same location on March 8-10.
