168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea is expecting his difficult 2024 WorldSBK campai𓆉gn to potentially continue t🧜his weekend at Donington Park.

The six✤-time world champ𝔉ion is only 14th in the standings after the opening four rounds, in what can only be described as a disastrous start to his time with Yamaha.

Signs of improved form have been there at Assen and Misano howev🤡er, and Rea is h💞oping to use home comfort as a way of being more competitive.

Rea sai𝔉d: “Donington’s a good circuit for me; I grew up here, so every time you come through the gate, you feel like you’ve grown up with the marshals, fans from BSB days, so there’s a certain familiarity.

“A lot of family and friends make the trip ꦑacross the Irish Sea. Hopefully the fans come out in force.

“There’s a lot of strong British riders, 𒉰so hopefully we can give them something t❀o cheer about on Saturday and Sunday.

“Misano was a really tough weekend, but through tough moments you learn soꦺmething and makes you feel stronger.

“I feel we can start building a good foundation now after all our learnings. We still need to work on my confidence on the R1, to♑ improve the feeling riding on the limit.”

In terms of what will allow Rea to be more consistent and competitive, trusting his🐽 R1 when it comes to the electronics and chassis is a big part of it.

“The tr♒ust in the electronics and chassis is really step by step,” said Rea before discussing this weekend.

“Assen was a strange weekend weather-wise for everybody. Donington’s a clean sl👍ate. It’s a track I’ve had good history at, the Yamaha R1’s been ve🔜ry strong here in the past.

“I expect it to be a tough weekend, it’s so competitive at🐭 the front and we have to walk before 𒊎we can run.

“The biggest thing I want to work on this weekend is my feeling and confidence, try to build that, because the last races have been confid♊ence-sa🅰pping.”
