A difficult 2024 WorldSBK season continued for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea at Misano last weekend, with the six-time world champion failing to record anything bett꧅er than a P8 finish.

A hug⛦e crash in 🍸Race 1 saw Rea get away with a lucky escape, before the former Kawasaki rider bounced back with eighth in the Superpole Race.

On the backfoot heading into qualifying, Rea’🍌s str꧙uggles continued which led to him admitted “baby steps” aren’t enough.

“From my side🧸 it’s frustrating, because since I jumped on the bike, I feel like we’ve made baby steps…I need something that I can fight with,2 said Rea.

“It was nice at the Misano test, being fast over one lap, but we just didn’t st༒art off with that same momentum.

“I don’t want to doubt myself, but it’s ha𓆏🦂rd to see where the way forward is coming. No excuses. We weren’t fast enough this weekend…there’s no excuse for being subpar.”

“Hard to push one when I’m not fully confident”

In pre-season testing Rea looked fast, assured and with a ♉clear idea of how he wanted to ride the r1.

But as soon as he arrived at Phillip Island for testing and then the season-opener, things have not b🐭een the same for the Superbike legend.

Assen (round 3🔯) was a step forward but Rea and Yamaha have failed to kick on since, leaving the 37-year-old frustrated.

“Let’s not kid ourselves…Assen was a chaotic race,” began Rea. “The long and the short of it is that when ♔I jumped on the R1 in the Winter Test, it felt great…but we hav🌊en’t kicked on.

“It’s really, really hard to push when I’m not fu🔴lly confident. It's a꧙ frustrating time for sure.

“I need to forget the podium and expectations, because that’s wherꦗe 🤪pressures come from.

“The next target is to understand th𒆙is bike and to really put a lot of pressure on the guys to give me what I need to be fast. It’s frustrating when we’re not address𒁏ing problems.”
