168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pedro Acosta delivered an impressive response to a tough Sunday at Jerez by being a persistent frontrunner during Friday practice at Tech3’s home Le Mans MotoGP round.

The teenage rookie, fourth and top KTM in the world championship, began the day second only J✱orge Martin in opening practice.

Acosta then sailed safely through to Qualifying 2 with third place in the afternoon🐼, behind only title leader Martin and reigniꦫng champion Francesco Bagnaia.

"Normally, Friday morning is a bit more difficult for us because we have to start fr🎃om somewhere of course, but today was somehow a bit easier for us,” Acosta said.

“Yesterday, I was saying that Le Mans is a good track for us, even if I never had great resu🦂lts here, but I enjoy riding in France.

“I think that we made a big step compared to Jerez, the feeling is much better, we made some improvements with the electronics, so w꧅e are really happy with how the day went, 🔯and we will look to continue progressing tomorrow."

Jack Millerꦍ was the next best KTM rider, in sixth, with Acosta’s team-ma🌺te Augusto Fernandez in 16th, just ahead of Brad Binder (who crashed three times).

Fernandez was 0.855s from𒁃 Martin, at a track where he took his best MotoGP result of fourth place a year ago. Fernandez revealed he hasဣ made the bike shorter, but it is costing him time in the braking zones.

"Coming from the Jerez Test, we had a ne༺w plan with a different bike s𝓡etup, so today was about putting this plan into action, and issues are not going to be solved in one session, especially because we are coming from a difficult situation,” Fernandez said.

“We need more laps, but the feeling has been much better than the last ro🎉unds today☂, and I am feeling happy with the work. The bike is a bit shorter now, so we need to improve in the braking, adapt to its reactivity, but we are working on it and hopefully we will start feeling a lot better."
