168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin made the perfect start to his 2024 MotoGP campaign by leading opening prac🧸tice🍬 for the Qatar Grand Prix.

The reigning title runner-up finished a fraction ahead of Aleix Espargaro, Pedro Aco🅺sta and Marc Marquez in a session that saw the top 17 all within one-second.

“We are all so tight,” Martin told MotoGP.com. “It was a nice day, but we did a lot of laps during the tests, so everything is already prepared. I think we don't ha🙈ve to change a lot the bike.”

But a surprise rainstorm before the evening session saw second practice reclassified as a free session, with direct acce꧂ss to Qualifying 2 moved to Saturday.

Martin was only 18th in the♏ wet, opting not to take risks but also suffering some vision problems from the dirty water. 

“I feel it was a nice decꩵision [to delay direct Qualifying 2 access until Saturday], it was too risky to try to push with those conditions. Also, it wasn't counting, so it made no sense,” said the Pramac Ducati rider.

“I just tried to understand the situation, but I struggled a bit to make the tyres work and also to see. Mayb🥀e it was screen or helmet. But we will give the feedback and next time🍬 we will be faster.

“Hopefully tomorrow is dry. We will trꦚy to be fast tomorrow morning, then in qualifying and do a great Sprint race.”

Martin took a close victory ⭕in last November💮’s Qatar Sprint race.

New team-mate Franco Morbidelli, who mis𓃲sed all of pre-season testing due to a head injury, was last in the dry (but within 2.2s of Martin) then one place ahead of Martin in the wet.

Marc Marquez, who went on to lead t🍒he wet session, tipped Martin and reigning world🌃 champion Francesco Bagnaia as the riders to beat for pole position on Saturday.
