With just three rounds to go in his second and - for now - final MotoGP season, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Augusto Fernandez i๊s yet to get close to the results of his rookie campaign.

Most importantly for the Spaniard, he’s never fe🀅lt comfortable.

The GASGAS Tech3 rider took fourth place at Le Mans among threꩲ🦄e top-ten finishes and 71 points last year.

So far this year, Fernandez has just 21 points, a best of eleventh and was out of a 2025 ride ♑by mid-June, when Enea Bastianini and M🐬averick Vinales.

Fernandez, who has been linked with a possible Yamaha test riding deal, says his only goal is to try aꦕnd finish the season with ‘good feelings’ on the bike.

“Last year was good here. Again, I don't know w🃏hat to ex🍌pect from this year, like in every track,” Fernandez said on Thursday in Buriram.

“Last year I ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚwas in the top 10 on Friday, directly into Q2, and then the race wasn't perfect because I had some issues🔥. But I felt not so bad here.

“So let's see.  We are working hard to try and finisಌh the season with good feelings. I d꧋on't want to finish the season as bad as it's been all this season.”

Despite the end of the world championship being just weeks away, Fernandez said they are still withoꦺut a base set-up.

“So we're still changing and playing," he said. "For this weekend, we have an idea. I've been thinking a lot, to try to see how🎉 to get the feeling and also checking the other KTMs, and my bike last year.

“I don't know, just trying everything! I don't give up 🌸[hope of finding] the feeling, riding good, being as fast as I know. We have three tracks that I like and let's see.”

The main change💦 for the 2024 RC16 was the switch from a steel trellis frame to a carbon fibre chassis, debuted by the factory team♎ at the end of last year.

Fernandez’s rookie team-mate Pedro Acosta has taken the bike to four grand prix podiums this year, plus a furthe✃r rostrum for Brad Binder.

Asked if he 🥂has ever felt as comfortable on the carbon fibre as he had been last season, Fernandez replied: “Never. N꧒ever got the feeling.”

The former Moto2 world champion added t🅷hat his difficulties seem to stem from the flexibility of the chassis at the rear.

“It's not a lack of grip, but it is at t🌠he same time - the feeling that I have, and in terms of rear contact. It’s not stability, but it’s like a flexible feeling. It’s a strange feeling.

“So yeah, it's been a very difficult one. But there are three more riders that have been able to go very fast this year. One [rider] more than the other🍰s.ꦍ But at the end, [all] better than me.

“So as I said, I don't give up. Three🌳 more races to go and let's keep pushi♔ng.”

While Binder and 🎀Acosta are battling over fifth in the world championship, Binder’s team-mate Jack Miller is 14th in the standings, with a best finish of fifth.
