Fermin Aldeguer close to podium in Qatar sprint
“Very happy,” Aldeguer told&♒nbsp;. “Honestly, seeing the podium so close 💜felt like it wasn't enough.
“But you have to be realistic, we're rookies and we're maꩲking progress. We don't have to rush. “Yes, we have the speed, but that doesn't mean it has to come at this moment.”
Aldeguer had crash🍸ed out of the🌳 Americas MotoGP - but denied that this caused hesitancy when attacking Morbidelli for a podium.
“No, because if I had been closer, I would hav🐎e gone for it any💦way,” he insisted.
“The problem is that I had to fight with two guys to get on the𒁃 podium.
“Quartararo does♐n't have as much engine as we do, but he brakes very late and it's difficult to overtake. And then Morbidelli, who is another toug🌳h challenge...
“I wasn't🅷 happy with fifth place, n🎃or with fourth, but we took it strong.”
It was suggested that Aldeguer is already excelling in the second halfꩵ of races due to his tyre management.
He replied: “In Moto2, you 🐓already made🦩 a big difference at the end.
“I liked starting first and finishing firs🌱t. That's when I enjoyed it the most because I could manage my pace.
“Here, I'm really enjo🥂ying myself; I can ride the way I like, without overdoing itꦚ.
“I'm the rider who consumes the least 🤪tyres among the Ducati riders, which is why I struggle more in time attacks because I don't really push hard, but I'm doing very well in 𓂃long races.
“And I get points in the races, so that's good. 🍃But we have to improve in time trials to get further ahead.”
Aldeguer will again start from eighth in Sunday’s Qatar MotಌoGP ✱looking to round off an excellent weekend.
