Fabio Quartararo joked he almost “made pole position from the other side” as he struggled toꦯ 18th on his Yamaha in Friday practice at the MotoGP Aragon Grand Prix.

The 2021 world champion comes to Aragon off the back of three𒀰 successive pole posi🧔tions on an ever-improving Yamaha package.

But Friday at Aragon proved to be a struggle for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo, who was only 18th at the end of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:the hour-long afternoon session and unable to get a direct Q2 qualifying spot.

He was visibly struggling with rear grip, which meant all of his late time attack efforts had to be꧑ aborted, with Quartararo explaining that this issue came on soft rubber and made the M1’s electronics “crazy”.

“We almost made the pole position from the other side,” he joked on Friday to MotoGP media at Aragon.

“No, it was a really tough day, especially with the soft 🌺tyre that we don’t understand what really happened with electronic🀅s and stuff.

“But not the best day and especially we don’෴t understand why and this is something that is more difficult.

“The bike 🌺is jཧust [moving] for no reason and the problem is that you never know when to expect it.

“In our case, i⛄t’s not the best when you are on the bike at full lean angle and you never know if you’re going to lose it on the edge or on the e♏xit.

“And I didn’t make any laps. So, the four laps I did were all cutting or making mistakes. But we will have to find a solut🅷ion.

“The set-up 🐎is good. We just have to unꦜderstand why when we change rubber our bike becomes completely different and our electronics are crazy.

“The set-up of the bike is great. I🐭t’s since Qatar that we’ve just touched a few things, but the electronics must change.

“It was not the easiest day b🗹ut ꧟the engineers need to understand why I have this like completely losing.”

Quartararo added that the grip from the Aragon surface didn’t contribute to his traction issues, but struggled so much on the sof💫t that he wanted to do his time attacks on the medium r♍ear.

“I wanted to make t👍he last time attack with the medium tyre, but we didn’t have it because clearly it was really, really tough to ride the bike,” he explained.

“And when you don’t know what to expecཧt i𒅌t’s the worse.

“This is🎐 why I wanted to go with the medium. But I think in the sprin⭕t if we still have the same problem I think I will use the medium.”

He concluded:🐈 “Of course you exit bad, you want to brake later, but you go wide, you make mistakes.

“But always happens ev🅷ery lap and I was keeping trying but at the last moment I didn’t want to fly just to go to Q2. So I just w🍷anted to try to keep calm, but it was just like that.”
