Brad Binder’s non-start combined with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pedro Acosta’s first double points weekend since Mandalika put the MotoGP rookie back i🌜nto fifth place in the world cham﷽pionship standings.

The GASGASG Tech3 rider made swift progress from 13th to 5th and was hunting down Alex Marquez, but a scare at the final hairpin prompted Acosta to make sure he brough♍t the bike home.

“I lost a lot of time overtaking Maverick, Fabio and Rins,” Acosta said. “Then when I was catching ꩵAlex, the temperature of the front tyre went super high and it was quite difficult to manage.

“With about 5 l♛aps to go I lost the f𝔉ront in the last corner and thought, ’F**k, OK, let's not put the race in the bin for nothing’.”

Acosta went on t൩o finish 1.4s behind the Gresini Ducati rider.

“Don’t get me wrong, I was pushing to get that fo🐻urth position, but what I hadn’t recovered [to Alex] in 15 laps, I was not recovering in 1 laಞp.

“For this, it was necessary for me, 🌸was necessary for us - was necessary even if one day we are going to fight for a championship - tha𝔉t maybe less is more at the end of the season.

“Because have a look how many points I ♏lost in the races that I crashed. A lot.”

Acosta has suf♕fered 12 non-scores this season, and has suffered the most f꧂alls of any rider with 26 accidents.

“Don’t get me wrong, but put a 5th place in ever🌄y track that I crashed and it’s many points at the end of the season.

“I need to put this also in my head! Maybe when you ride wiꦡthout pressure, you go flat out, but sometimes we need to slow down a bit.”

Acosta also explaineꦛd he also needed to gather as much data as possible on the KTM aero.

“It was quite important to see the difference bet😼ween the fairing we used yesterday in the sprint and the one that we were using today,” he said.

“It was the new homologation and the old one. It’s quite difficult to unders𓆉tand why one fairing is betterꦺ than the other. But the good thing is that they are making a super nice investigation about it.

“[The fairing] was better today because min𒐪imum I was able to overtake.”

Acosta will take a slim 3-point advantage over future team-mate Binder into the new Barcelona finale, as the pair fight to be the top non-Ducati rider in the world championship🔴 standings.

Binder withdrew from the Sepang⛦ restart due to a shoulder injury in the red-flagged Tuꦐrn 2 pile-up.
