Top 10 just three-tenths apart in Thailand MotoGP practice - Jack Miller and Brad Binder explain why
“It’s a short track,” 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Brad Binder pondered. “1m 29s…”
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jack Miller interrupted: “With two massive straights…”
Binder: “Yea🃏h. F****** hell! 30s on the straights, maybe, so you don’t have that much space to make a difference.
“It’s super-tight over♚ one lap but, iꦯn the race, it will be normal.”
Miller explained more about why the field was so close on Friday: “It’sꦐ relatively simple - the track, the layout.
“It’s hard to make up 💎tim🐎e, it’s hard to lose time.
“You 🌠can only brake as late as possible at Turn 1 and Turn 3. It’s a balance, on both o🤡f those corners.
“The infield is tightꦺ. On the last sector - 9, 10, 11, that sequence of corners - I am los🐭ing a bit of time there.
“I🔯t’s not that difficult a track but, when you’re trying to find thousandths here and there, that’s when it gets hard.”
Binder: “We have a little bit in our pocket that we can try to fix"
Binder went ninth-fౠaste✨st in the session topped by title-chasing Jorge Martin.
The KTM ꦐrider reacted: “Today wasn’t too bad. This morning things were tওricky.
“For the afternoon we made a good step forward. I was surprised to get thr✱ough to Q2 but I didn’t do a lap in the last run, I had two yellow flags and went off-track. Not ideal.
“Glad to have scraped t﷽hrough. I feel like we’ve got good potential tomorrow.
“We have a little bit in our pocket that we can try to fix, some🔜 small things in the bike. If I can improve Sector 3, I can make a good step.”
Binder was quickest in the꧃ first and last sectors at Buriram.
“I feel good for braking and entry,” he said. “The places that we need to flow are a little sketchy - that’s Sector 3, pretty much. Sector 2, I’m n𒈔ot perfect either. We have an idea how to make those better for tomorrow.”
Miller: “Apparently he wasn’t on the line. But, I mean..."
Miller was frustratingly restricted to 13th.
He explaine𒁏🌃d: “This morning was good, felt good. This afternoon was not good, I did 20 laps on a tyre which didn’t work at all.
“ไI put a hard tyr♑e on afterwards and immediately went one second faster.
“The first time-attack was go♉od, back to normal, I was pretty happy. The second time-attack I had Aleix on the line, going into Turn 4 the fastest corner on the track.
“A♐ppar🅺ently he wasn’t on the line. But, I mean, there’s only one line there…
“Second lap, yellow flag. 0.3s ofℱf, 13th, that’s how it goes.”
Peter has been in the paddoജck for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront of the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s injury issues.
