2025 MotoGP rookie 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fermin Aldeguer secured a first premier class 🏅podium in the French Grand Prix after a race the🌺 Spaniard says he “enjoyed a lot”.

Aldeguer started from the second row, and was in the leading group in the initial part of the race where the front runners were o🐬n slicks.

Pitting a lap later than 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Marquez, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Gresini Racing’s r🥃ookie lost time in the pit stops before recovering to finish on the podiu༺m for the first time in his short premier class career.

It also marked the first double-podium of Aldeguer’s career having finished third behind the Marquez brothe🐎rs in Saturday’s Sprint.

“Today is more special than yesterday because the pod𝔍ium in a long race is more important,” Aldeguer told the post-🔯race press conference at Le Mans.

“I’m very happy because we are arriving with a good progression, and for sure I am a rookie, we have to stay calm, but I’m very happy for the work that I’m doing, how I manage all the situations toda𒆙y – I did the same as riders with [mo෴re] experience.

“I followed Marc [Marquez] in the first part after a good batt๊le with the slick, but when I continued one more lap with the slick I think I lost a lot of time.

“I was a little bit more nervou🌳s but I managed w🙈ell.

“Also, when I chan💖ged the bike with the rain, I don’t have a lot𒐪 of experience but lap-by-lap I was going better. Finishing on the podium today is incredible for me.”

Aldeguer added that the amount of t🦹he race that was run in the wet was daunting to begin with, but was pleased that he managed to stay calm in what wa𒁃s a new situation for him.

“With the rain, when I saw the laps and we had to do 20 more laps– the ♈track was not in the best condition, my feeling wasn’t perfect, but I stayed calm, I put my little experience on the bike, I enjoyed a lot doing this little comeback,” he said.

That approach allowed him to reel in first Maverick Vinales and then Pe💖dro Acosta to finish 🔯on the podium.

“I pu🃏she🎶d my 100 per cent [to catch Acosta],” he said.

“For sure, [wit🐓hin] the limit, because today finishing fourth would also be a good result for me, but my pace was good, I felt good with the bike.

“Maybe if I went slower, I wouldꦯ lose the concentration and crash.

“But in that moment I was just thinkiౠng to arrive on t🐲he podium.

“I saw Pedro [Acosta] didn’t have a lot of grip, so I pushed my 100 per cent to arrive but [within] the li🌠mit.”
