Bastianini was 16th on the timesh💟eets at the offic🍌ial MotoGP preseason test.

He later admitted that swapping the factory Ducati for a Tech൩3 KTM is proving more difficult than anticipated.

“I was very busy, especially because I was not motivated. We tried a lot of sol🦹utions.﷽ In the end? Nothing,” Bastianini said on Wednesday.

“In the afternoon we went in 💞the opposite direction.

“We tried something different to w🌠hat I usu🐻ally like.

“In the end? It was good, with this bike.

“The main problem came with myself because I have in my mind the style🍌 of tಌhe Ducati.

“This bike isn’t quite [like a Ducati]...”

Enea Bastianini shares KTM concern

Bastianini admitted he has been taken 🅰aback by how different th🦂e Ducati and the KTM are.

“A bit, 𒈔yes,” he said. “Because on-track it was quite similar from the outside.

“But on the inside? It’s completely different.

“I need m�🔯�ore time than [I expected] to be comfortable and faster.”

Bastianini noted the key are𒊎a where he is falling behind.

“One thing is the 💫use of the rear brake. It is the opposite,” he explained.

“If you use the rear brake𒆙 on the straight, the rear moves a lot.

“The vibrations from the rea♛r then come 🍃to the front!

“But to modify this after many yea🧸rs is com🦄plicated. You’d need an incredible result.”

However, Bastianini did 🎃add: “In the afternoon ꦿI improved, and I am happy.”

He has one more day of testing his KTM before the first race weekend inꩲ Thailand on February 28-March 2.
