168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Andrea Locatelli managed to match 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea’s lap time in the closing stages of the Catalunya WorldSBK test, howeve🌊r, the Italian struggled tཧo match Rea’s consistency.

After a brilliant openingꦜ round where he could have won Race 2, Locatelli cemented himself as one of the series’ top riders. 

• Andrea Iannone: ‘I’m a rookie but the goaꦆl is always similar…’ 

• Sam Lowes: ‘Eve🐻rything is still new for me but I feel🙈 we are going to be competitive’

But feeling less thꦗan 100% fit fur to his crash on the final lap of Race 2 in Phillip Island, Locatelli admitted he wasn’t able to get the best from his R1.

Speaking after day-two, Locatelli added: “It was an interesting day – It’s always a bit strange riding h🍎ere ꦜcompared to some other circuits, we know that on this track we can have some wheel spin compared to Phillip Island.

“In Australia the grip from the new tarmac was incredible, so here is another condition and it is important t☂o learn and know what we c🎀an improve in the set-up to manage this.

“But in the end, I think we did a good job – I have good confidence and a good feeling on my R1. I 🍸am not 100% physically, because when I crashe🌜d in Phillip Island, I had some pain in my knee – the confidence on the bike is quite high like always but my feeling when I am trying to push is not quite fully there.

“We did a lot of laps, understood a lot of 🍨things but we will see during tꦐhe race because that can be another story.”

With Kawasaki competitive in Phillip Island🐎 thanks to Alex Lowes, Ducati and BMW being in the mix, and Rea seemingly making a step forward with his R1, challengers for race wins could be even higher at round two this weeken꧑d.

But Locatelli wants to focus on what he can control: “We are always focused only on ourselves du𒉰ring testing to try to do the best job – I was happy we did a lot of laps on u൲sed tyres yesterday.

“Unfortunately today during the long run we had a technical problem s🧸o we lost a little bit this opportunity.

“Now I have some days to recover at home and I hope to ℱbe fighting again for the podium next week.💟”

At GRT Yamaha, Remy Gardner was the sta꧋ndout rider particularly on day-one as he challenged Rea for top spot on multiple occasions.

After🌞 a test that also iಞnvolved a crash on day-one, the Australian said: "It was a solid test overall, we did some good work in my opinion.

“We focused on long distance runs and I can say I'm😼 satisfied with the job don💫e, it was a productive test.

“Unfortunately🌺, a small crash slowed the whole process on the first day; despite having a decent feeling with the hard soft front tyre, it probably got cold and I ended up crashing at Turn 5.

“That didn't prevent us from im🐼pro🎶ving and our pace is good, even though we know there's still margin to improve.

“Unfortunately, I wasn't able to put together all my best sectors during my fast lap, but we can be confident for theꦯ race weekend."
