On a run of seven top five finishes in nine races heading into Catalunya, Redding and BMW suffered one of their WorldSBK worst rounds of the season afte🐎r claiming just one top ten.&🌌nbsp;

Crashes in both feature races meant Redding picked up just two points from the weekend, his worst re🥂turn since the season-opener at Aragon where he claimed♊ one point.

After stunning performances at Donington Park, Most and Magny-Cours, Redding's difficult round in Barcelona saw him drop down to ninth in the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:WorldSBK standings. 

Redding, who is one of the biggest characters in Motorcycle racing, is part of a WorldSBK championship that’s become too friendly, according to former four-time series winner Carl F🔯oga♉rty, do you agree? 

Discussing th🦂e latest round in Catalunya, Redding detailed the issues he was facing by saying: "Sunday was a little bit better than Saturday when I struggled a lot. We wer💎e fighting for sixth position but ended up eighth. 

"Then in the main race in the afternoon, we had to go for the harder option front tyre which I also crashed on [Saturday]. We put on that tyre ag🍃🅷ain because of the temperatures and we think it was the right way to go. 

"Then I crashed again on the first lap. Overall, I’m OK, a little bit sore on the knee, so I will be fit for the next race, but I’m a little bit disappointed with our performance this weekend but y💮ou’ve got to take the bad with the good."

A challenger to the likes of championship leader 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Toprak Razgatlioglu and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea in Donington Park a♏nd Most, Redding is looking to redi𓄧scover that form at Portimao, a circuit BMW claimed their first win in eight years [2021].

Redding said: "For me, Portimao is a good circuit, very technical. I quite enjoy riding it because of th꧑e character, the up and down, the long corners, the slow coꦓrners, so I am very excited to go there. 

"Obviously, after a tough weekend 🧸at Barcelona, it would be nice to try to get back to where we were, but again i🌄t’s another new track for me with BMW, so I don’t know the potential. 

"I know BMW had a good re꧒sult there last year in the rain-mixed conditions so let’s see what we can do. 

"It would be nice to get back to the top five, and if we are feeling 𒅌reall🦹y strong it would be nice to try and get a podium again or at least fight for it. I am looking forward to it."
