168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder’s British MotoGP never got started.

The factory KTM rider lined up from sixth on the grid but faced an imme൲diate technical issue, meaning he barely got off the line and was overtaken by everybody within moments.

Binder’s race ended immedi👍ately and he gave a frustrated explanation to media inc꧙luding mahbx.com afterwards.

“I haven’t got much to say,” he sighed.

“I got to the start. When I pulled off, I had a slight clu🎀tch issue and I couldn’t geꦅt away.

“So, yeah, end of story.”

Binder explained more about his clutch: “It started slipp𒉰ing when I went away. It unfortunately stayed in.

“It starte🌳d slipping when I tried to launch. I tried to get it to release but it didn’t want to.

“I tried🐓 to get back to the pi💧ts to swap bikes but it didn’t make it.”

He insisted there were no problems unti🅰l he lined up on the starting grid: “It was all okay. When I got the grid I really battled to engage neutral. I thought ‘oꦆh shit…’

“Then, obviously the bike was creeping forwards൩ ꩲon the grid. I had an idea of what was coming.

“I tried my best to stay down and put my hand 🌞up, in case someone hit ꧂me, so I could be more braced for it. I was lucky that nobody did.”

T🔯NT Sports’ Michael Laverty analysed what went wrong: “They’ve forgotten to disengage fuel-🍰save mode from the sighting lap.

“Unfortunately, it has happened before.

“They put a 𒁏map in to use ꦑno fuel on the sighting lap. They come round to the grid and they should put the race map back in.”

Binder regrettably hoped his KTM have found answers to some of its pr🌊oblems at Silverstone.

“This morning we turned things upside-d🍬own,” he said.

“We put in completely different stuff which we hadn♓’t used in ages, and I was fast on a medium tyre.

“We worked super hard on our tyres, trying to make lap time, because we spin so much. So our wear was high. It would have been difficult to have made it the whole w🐼ay in a good condition.”
