168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pedro Acosta has pinpointed the end-of-month MotoGP test at Jereꦬz as “maybe the most important day of our season”.

Scheduled for Monday, 28 April, the day after the Spanish Grand Prix, the one-day outing will be the first official testing opportunity since pre-season 🅰wrapped up in Buriram.

“It is maybe the most important day of our se🐼ason,” Acosta said of the Jerez test. “We have to try many things.”

Like all KTM riders, Acosta has endured🌸 a disappointing start to the 2025 season.

The young Spaniard, promoted to the💙 factory team on the back of a stellar rookie campaign featuring five Grand Priꩲx podiums, has only scored 16 points so far this season, for 13th in the world championship.

That compares with 54-points and fourth in the world champ𒊎ionship aft🐈er the opening three rounds of his rookie season at Tech3.

Despite strong qualifying results - 7t𝐆h, 5th and 4th respectively - Acosta and his RC16 have struggled to convert o♛ne-lap speed into race performance.

“Talking about myself, we are much more co⛎mpetitive th🐭an last year in qualifying. Good,” he said.

“But then we go to the Sprint races and the grip suddenly is🌠 like [gone].

“When we have grip, it's easy to be competitive… But it's difficult to understand why there🐻 is this drop in performance♒ between Q2 and the Sprint race.”

Vibration Woes Continue for KTM 

A key issue for Acosta is persistent rea♒r-wheel vibrati💮on.

“Always more or less when I talk about problems, I am talking about vibrations," he sai💯d. "It's a topic every tim🥃e I enter the box. We need to find a solution because it's already one year like this.”

The Spaniard made a distinction between t♔ypical 'chatter', which can often be seen on TV, and the unsettling vibration𓂃 he’s experiencing.

“For me, chatter is when the rea⛎r or the front wheel is jumping, like the save of Quartararo in Q1 [at COTA]. 

“Vibraꦰtion I feelꦗ when I touch the throttle and the rear wheel is like [shaking]. It's not jumping, but it's making [life] difficult. 

"And it's like a snowball, the vibration of the whol𝔉e bike becomes bigger, bigge✨r, bigger.”

The large 'salad box' at the back of the KTM this sꩲeason, perhaps housing a mass damper, ꦺis assumed to be an attempt to soothe the vibrations.

Factory team-mate Brad Binder is currently♌ the top KTM rider, in eleventh in the world championship, with Tech3 ridersಌ Enea Bastianini 12th and Maverick Vinales 17th.

The final grand prix before the Jerez weekenꦆd is next weekend's Qatar round, where Acosta thrilled on his MotoGP debut one yeaꦆr ago and KTM took a pair of runner-up finishes with Binder.
