The KTM rider, alongside 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder, was repeatedly challenging for the lead during the four race starts that took plac꧒e at the Spanish MotoGP.

Miller, who started from the middle of the second row, twice led into tur🐽n one while the other two occasions saw Binder lead the way after starting from P4.

"I’ve always had good starts my whole Grand Prix career," said Miller. "Everybody said it was the Ducati launch device! Now that is comp🌳laining and the KTM lau🌟nch device is the best one, so…

"Brad and I were both getting off the line well in Jerez. Fingers crossed ꦚfor no red flags this weekend.

"Le Mans is a place that I enjoy even if it tried to kill me, once upon a time. Even in 2020 I fought Danilo [Petrucci] and Dovi for the win🌌 until the bike expired. I’ve been fa🌜st here throughout my career.

"It’s a track that can suit our bike. As we showed in Jerez it’s good at stopping and gettinܫg out of tight corner🍰s."

While Miller had shown speed throughout the opening three rounds, particularly in Portimao and COTA, the Australian complete💖d his best set of results last time out.

A double podium in Jere꧑z was not only a sign that Miller has adapted better than expected to the RC16, but that he’s also aided the Austrian manufacturer when it comes to producing t🐻heir best motorcycle since joining MotoGP.

A race winner at Le Mans 🤡previously, Miller could be in the mix once again as he admits there ar🥀e several key components to being competitive at the French circuit.

Miller added: "Between the stopping and the weight, the way that the bike changes direction… You need to get your timing ri🍷ght at the chicanes. 

"T꧅he bike needs to react in the rightౠ way. We’ve got that in this bike. I’ve got more and more comfortable. 

"We were able to push in Texas until I crash🍌ed then followed it up in Jerez with a couple of podiums. We come here in good condition."
