168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo lost half of his 13.2s deficit to race winner Jorge Martin in the opening laps of Sunday’s Indonesian MotoGP.

The Monster Yamaha rider struggled to generate heat in the rear tyre, leaving him 6.7s behiﷺnd Martin after the opening four laps.

The time lost dropped the Frenchman from a season-best sixth on the grid to 13th - despite fo⛎ur ri🐼ders crashing ahead.

But once up to speed, Quartararo progressed up the order to a season-best equalling seventh place, losing only 0ꦫ.8s💜 to Martin over the final four laps.

Without the ♔e♛arly setback, Quartararo felt he might have challenged Francesco Bagnaia, Franco Morbidelli and Marco Bezzecchi for what became the final podium place.

“I lost 7-8 positions on the first laps because all weekend it took us more than 4-5 la🎉ps to warm up the rear medium tyre,” Quartararo explained.

“I was fast but clearly the proꦉblem was warming up the tyre because then I was on the same pace as Bezzecchi, more or less.

“But we lost six seconds on the first laps and then💖 we were 13th. We arꦇe [still] slower than the others, but today was much closer to Morbidelli, Bagnaia…

“More than the position, what we have to look 💫at now is how fast we are goi🃏ng.”

After struggling to overtake in the Sprint, a switch from the soft to hard front tyre for the grand prix meant, “I could🐎 brake super-late and make some overtakes, also a few riders made some small mistakes ahead.”

That allowed Quartarar🍸o to take the chequered flag in seventh place, out of ๊12 finishers, equalling his best finish of the season for the third time in a row.

However, even with the early loss of pace, Quartararo was much closer to victory than at both previous Emilia Romagna (+20.9s) and S𒁃an Marino (+17.6s) Misano races.

“We had the speed today, but we are still missing quite a lot to be happy,” said the 2021 world champion, adding: “But today was quite ဣgood… We made some good laps.”

Quartararo’s 🦂best lap was 0.277s slower than the quickest of the race by Enea 🍌Bastianini.

Alex Rins: "One of my toughest races"

Team-mate Alex Rins fini♉shed twelfth and last bef𓄧ore being promoted to eleventh by a post-race tyre pressure penalty for Takaaki Nakagami.

Rins also struggled to generate heat in the rear tyre and, after being overtaken by Joan Mir, remained in last place from la🌟p 6 until the chequered flag on lap 27.

“It was so difficult for me to warm the tyre,꧋ we lost a lot of positions on the first lap because I we🌊nt into corner 7 with no throttle and lost completely the rear,” Rins revealed.

“We knew it would be hard for us to get temperature into the rear tyre [but] this was [worse] than we expected. I am a little bu𒈔t sad, frustrated because we started Friday quite well, but we couldn’t not progress as I wanted.

“Saturday was quite hard and today was one of my toughest races in the world champio🔜nship - I finished last! We need to check what happened and analyse.

“For sure it is not the place I want to be. But, looking forward to the next race. Luckily it’s next week.”
