168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Maverick Vinales frequently lives up to his name - brilliant at his best, but the good days are too flee🦩ting.

The veteran Spaniard is entering his 10th season of MotoGP in 2024 with this weekend’s Qatar opener.

And his Aprilia impressed during preseason testing a😼nd could yet be Ducati’s closest challenger i𒐪n the early weeks of the season.

“M♉averick? The problem is - as much as I love Maverick - you never know,” broadcaster Simon 🅷Crafar analysed.

“He is super fast, probablyཧ equally the most 🧜talented rider in the class.

“But you just don’t know what’s going to happen.

“Iඣt all hasꦬ to run smoothly for him to get the result that he has the ability to do.

“I hope he does, I really do!”

Last year Vin🔯ales secured three podium finishes including at the Portimao season-opener.

But this year, in Qatar, his teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aleix Espargaro might have the advantage.

“This is one of♚ Aleix’s favourite circuits,” Crafar 🐻assessed.

“He saidꦓ that he’s riding the best of his life, and he’s g🔯ot the best machine that he’s ever ridden, the ‘24 Aprilia.

“He said all that’s missing is a bit of torque, engine 🃏power.

“Everything is🐽 there. They’ve got the grip.🌜 But it doesn’t punch hard enough.

“They are already making big numbers with that engine. But he’s clearly hoping that the engine they turned up to the first race 𓂃with, he’s hoping it has more torque.

“I think he will be a real threat all weekend.”

Davide Brivio, the new team principal at Trackhous🅷e, insists Aprilജia are a team to watch at the Qatar MotoGP.

"I think Aprilia is in a great spot to be a challenger of Ducati, together wi💧th KTM," Brivio tipped.

"So that's also very exciting, to try to chal🐎lenge the stronger guys, that are dominating. That's why it's good to be with Aprilia at this moment.

“With the 2024 bike, there's been a lot of work on the aerodynamics. Actually, from what I couldဣ see, Aprilia has been copied by the others. So that's great! It's alread𝓰y a good achievement if you like.

“So I think with Aprilia we are in a position to be a serious challenger. Of🍌 course, it took Ducati many years to be in this position. And so hopefully Aprilia is going along the same pathway, without underestimating the ꦫothers [like] KTM.”
