Reigning double 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:World Superbike champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista says his racing future still hangs in the balance and that Ducati are “p🧸reparing for all possible scenarios”.

The 39-year-old dominated 🎉the 2023 season with 27 race wins but then suffered a double blow of winter injuries and, most significantly he feels, a new WorldSBK combined rider and bike weight limit for 2024.

Starting the seꩲason with just one podium at Phillip Island, Bautista took a home race win at Barcelona and a second in Assen to put the Duꦛcati star into the title lead.

But he was outpaced by BMW’s Toprak Razgatlioglu and rookie team-mate Nicolo Bulega last time a﷽t 𓆏Misano, meaning Bautista arrives at Donington Park having slipped to third in the standings.

“This season we are not in our best moment with the bike, we don’t have🗹 the same feedback as last year and we are struggling t🐬o get that feeling,” Bautista said.

“Last race in Misano, we struggled a lot. This year I don’t expect ജto dominate like last season. Our target is to get back the good feeling with the bike. If I can enjoy the bike and ride how I want, we can be competitive.

“The target is ꧟not to get back🍬 in the fight for the title, it’s to get our feeling back, have fun, and then we’ll see.”

That lack of fee🃏ling and enjoyment leaves a major question mark over his future.

“I don’t have any news from Misano,” Bautista said of 2025. “Right now, I don’t feel I’m enjoಌying t♔he bike like in the past.

🌸“I know Ducati is speaking to my manager, but my decision is not clear. At the 🌊moment I’m not very happy with the feeling I have on the bike, so let’s see.

“I know they [Ducati] arඣe preparing for all possible scenarios so ꦯwhen I make my decision, they are prepared.

“I know they are speaking, just in case I decide, but the priority is to get the feeling with the bike that would allow ﷽me to keep racing.”

Bulega said: “I’m really happy with Alvaro. He’s a gre🀅at guy and we have a good relationship. I hope to have Alvaro next year.”

Ducati is rumoured to have some new parts to try at D🔯onington Park this weekend.
