168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Rins has revealed he will re-try a ‘Ducati-style’ automatic ride-height system during this weekend’s Thai MotoGP.

Rather than pressing a button to instantly lower the M1 on the exit of a slow corner, reducing wheelie, the automatic system allows a💯 rider to prime the device on the way into the corner, with the rear then lowering ‘automatically’ on the exit.

“Yamaha created an automatic one - we say automatic, but yo🎀u still need to press - so here we are going to use it,” Rins said at Buriram on Thursday.

“[It] looks like the same system as Ducati. For example, we are going to use it exiting from the second last corner. I mean we activate it and we then [don’t] push agaiܫn until before co𒀰rner four.

“So for sure, it's less demanding for the fi𒁏nger!”

“This is the main benefit,” Rins ﷽ad꧅ded. “Because for example, the first time they brought it was in Austria and it was not working at 100%. So I was using a mix.

“But in the end, it's quite similar [performance] and in my case - since they were 💟introduced in ’20 or ’21 - I’ve always used m𝔍anual, so I'm used to use it.”

In terms 🧜of engines, Rins revealed that he pr𒀰efers a slightly different ‘configuration’ to team-mate Fabio Quartararo.

“We have the same 🐭engine but with a different configuration. In🍌side is quite different,” Rins said.

“What I like about😼 my engine is the cornering. ꦡMy one corners a little bit better than his engine,” he continued.

“It's a configuration that we tested quite a lot of times in Valencia, Mugello, and I always prefer this kind🃏 of engine.

“So they allowed me to use it and like this also we are taking information in both directions [for n🅰ext year].”

Quartararo 🏅revealed on Thursday that Yamaha is planning to introduce one more new engine spec during the remainin𒊎g three rounds:

“We will have, I thinꦑk, before the end of ꦑthe season a new spec [engine] with more top speed.”
