“I feel better, but I want to see how I feel on the bike. I'm looking forwar𒐪d to carrying out our clean work program and having the two races at our 🌞best,” he said.

Morbidelli was stretchered away from his second heavy fall of the weekend and later diagnosed with a “neck contusion”, ruling him out of Monday’s ꦍofficial post-race test.

The incident also brought an end to Morbidelli’s perfect 2025 run of points finishes, leaving Alex Marquez and Francesco Bagnaia as the only riders to have scored in all ten races so far this seas🤡on.

Despite the DNF, Morbidelli retains fourth in the world championship standings, although his advantage over team-mate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio di Giannantonio has narrowed to 21 points.

“Le Mans is another really important race for us. We are looking for continuing our great pace and speed, so the𒈔 goal is to do a really good job there,” said Morbidelli.

“I like the track, last year I had a nice comeback [to seventh] in the main race♏, so I’m confident looking at the track.”

While Morbidelli was sidelined, diౠ Giannantonio joined Bagnaia and Marc Marquez in evaluating updates for the factory-spe𓂃c GP25 during the Jerez test. 

“Le Mans is a beautiful historic track, where you go fast and there is a lot of braki𒐪ng. I think we will be able to use already in Franc🌞e the solutions we found in the Jerez test,” di Giannantonio said.

“So, I'm curious ⛦to see how the bike updates will be. In Le Mans we can do really well, last year we fought for the podium, then there will be a lot of fans and 🧔a lot of energy. So we will have fun.”
