Two-time 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:World Superbike Champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista had his Czech WorldSBK Race 2 ended at the first corner when he made contact with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jonathan Rea; without that, 💝the Spaniard reckons he could have fought for the podium.

Bautista and Rea’s collision at the first turn of the final race of the weekend left the Spaniard on the floor and Rea – who said afterwards that he thinks the contacꦐ🌸t was a “racing accident” – with a double long lap penalty, while 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Xavi Vierge will undergo assessments in Spain today (Monday 19 May) on a 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:suspected right foot fracture.

For Bautista, the crashꦗ meant a missed opportunity to fight for what would have been his first podium of the weekend having fi൲nished fifth in Race 1 and the Superpole Race from 10th on the grid.

“You have 💧to keep the positive, and for sure we are working to arrive at a good performance [level] and reduce the ga👍p with the front,” he told WorldSBK.com.

“We are quite strong, compared to our best moments, but also the level of the category is a bit higher [than in the past]: more riders fighting for the front, also lap times are faster, and for sure 🐠we are not in the same condition about the bike.

“But, in a𓄧ny case, w✤e are working really hard, that’s our target.

“I think [in Race 2], again, we were able to fight for the podium at least, but we will try to keep working ahead and try to continue this ꦓten🍸dency.”

Bautista’s late Superpole Race speed was strong, too, as he went from seventh𝔍 to fifth in the final few laps, but ultimately he was frustrated to not have been able to benefit from his second-row starting position for Race 2.

“𒈔In the Superpole Race I did a good start, I didn’t have any problems in the first chicane,” Bautista said.

“Just🎐 I went long in the second lap and I lost some gap; I think witho๊ut the mistake I could battle for the podium.

“In any case, we gained a lot of positions for Race 2, it was good. But, at the end, it doesn’t matter⛦ the position you start, I always find some pr🧔oblems in the first chicane.”
