France MotoGP: ‘I feel quietly confident, can be fast immediately’ - Miller

MotoGP race winner two weeks ago at Jerez🍌 Jack Miller will start tomorrow’s G༒rand Prix at Le Mans from third.
Miller has been one of the more consis🧸tent riders throughout the weekend so far and has a very real chance of joining Fabio Quartararo in the 2021 double race winner circle.
The 🐈Australian was one of a few riders to jump up the order with his final lap as conditions significantly improved come the end of Q2.
With the track already starti🌳ng to dry out during Q1, Miller was eager t✱o get out on slicks just as he did on a drying circuit in FP1 on Friday.
🉐"I tried to get out on the slicks as quickly as possible. I went out and checked the track real quick with the wets because at the end of Q1 it still looked quite wet - but thinking maybe we could throw the slicks on at the end of it," said Miller.
"But I went out and understood that the track was completely d𝔍ry so yeah, I just tried to get back and swap the bike as🌠 quickly as possible because you never know here how long that window of having a dry track is going to be.
"I went out and did like four laps on my own. I had Pol [Espargaro] behind me and Fabio [Quartararo] a bit further back and was able to go alright, but then it♏ started spitti📖ng at turn two and I completely lost the front.
"I thought ‘let’s slow down’, but I couldn’t slow down too much as we’re struggling quite a bit with the front tyre temperature, so I was j♋ust trying to keep some temp in that."
Sunday’s race could provide ☂a flag-to-flag situation which could be beneficial for Yamaha due to their strong dry weather pace, however, if it’s wet which is more likely,then Miller will be a 𓃲firm favorite.
The 26 year-old is quietly confident of his chances, saying: "In the wet I feel let’s say quietly confident with myself.🦹 I feel I can go out and be fast immediately. We wi🐬ll see and also that I don’t get too carried away. It’s just between me [mentaly] and my hand I guess."
