168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pedro Acosta knocked 6.796s from his Sprint ti♍me compared to Misano 1, setting a pace that would have put him in the wheeltracks of race winner Jorge Ma♏rtin just two weeks ago.

Unfortunately for the GASGAS Tech3 MotoGP rooki🅠e, Saturday’s Emilia Romagna Sprint winning time by Francesco Bagnaia was a similar 6.265s quicker than Martin tꦕwo weeks ago.

Acosta at least finished one place higher, fifth instead of sixth, and was again the top non-Ducati rider. But he admitted the ga🅘p to the top remains daunting.

“It was quite a good day. Also we were much faster in the Sprint race compared to 𓃲last week, for this we have to be happy,” Acosta said.

“But we still haveꦐ to work because finishing six seconds from first is quite a big [gap]. For this we need to see where to improve for tomorrow.”

Acosta was seen running the eye-ca🉐tching swingarm wings, previously 🧸used on wild-card Pol Espargaro’s prototype bike.

“We used some of the aerodynamic elements we tested here and ﷽finally some of them helped us to keep ꦉthe pace,” said Tech3 team manager Nicolas Goyon.

“We achieved our target but Pedro knows there is room to be better and that’s what we’ll aim 🍸for in tomorrow’s race🦹.”

Brad Binder was the next best KTM, one place and 1.5s behin💦d Acosta, whose team-mate Augusto Fernandez finished 20th.
