168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Luca Marini was thrilled to see a fellow Honda in the top 10 on Friday in Thaꩲiland, but isn’t getting carried away.

Johann Zarco was 10th-fastest in practice for the Thailand MotoGP, another small step in the right directio🅷n for the slowly improving Honda.

Factory Honda rider Marini settled for 17th but offered a detailed analysis of how the package is being twe🐻aked.

“Here, we tried a different compromi𒉰se with the setting,” Marini said.

“We tried to find a direction for next year with the weight distributio💎n. We tried to load the rear more. We tried to make the rear tyre work in a better way.

“Because, at the moment, it is the thing 𝔉that’s missing the most.

“In the first lap I warm the tyre, but💝 it drops during the race. We are strange compared to Aprilia, KTM and Ducati. We are different.

“We want to understand and improve this.

“There are positives.ꦐ It is better for braking, for stopping the bike, maybe on the grip but I need to work more on the settings and bala♉nce.

“On my side? I can improve more on the riding because I’ve done all year [in one way] but now we’ve gone beyond. As a rider, I c༺an do better.”

Marini said about Zarco finishing Friday 10th-fastest: “He made an amazing lap but he was on the limit. He risked at ever൩y corner, and was in the slipstream.

“We need to improve the performance of the bike becau🤡se, for one lap, you c🌸an do it.

“But in a race? Impossible.

“It’s a good sign to confirm 𝄹wha🦩t we’ve made a step.”

Marini believes he has addressed one area where the Hondaඣ traditionall꧂y struggled.

“For me, in the fast cor༺ners, we gain a lot⛄,” he said.

“Maybe becau💮se I’m a rider that likes fast corners.

“Also, with the fairing we made a huge step.

“At Misano, I was one of the fastest. They said ‘Honda struggle through♉ the years, every time’ but this was the first time we were good there.

“But we’ve lost in stop-aಞnd-go. Now the🐲 bike doesn’t stop, especially with the rear tyre.

“In hard braking, we are not perfor🐟ming well enough to be competitive with the other bike𒁏s.”

A different exhaust is available for Marini at Buriram but he wonꦦ’t get too eꩵxcited.

“I already tried it many times, this exh🍬aust,” he said.

“In my opinion, the standard one is better.

“This exhaust was made to solve a situation. We have to analyse the bike to see which exꩲhaust to use tomorrow.

“But whenever I’ve tried it, I prefer the standard on💫e.”
