Rossi (17th): The problem is always the same

The good news for Valentino Ross🍨i is that he knows why he struggled on Friday afterno𒁃on at the German MotoGP.

The bad news is the problem has been clear for the past 'seven-eight months' and 'we don't 🌌try nothing' to fix it.

That problem is a lack of acceleration and the solution, Rossi insists, will only be found by Yamaha engineers refining the electroniไcs.

After dropping from third place in FP1 to just 17th in FP2 at the Sachsenring, Rossi saiꩲd:

"First practi🐷ce was no🀅t so bad, but in the afternoon we tried to work with the used tyre to understand the pace, but my rhythm was not strong enough.

"I think the thirꦰd place in the morning is not 'true', but the 17th place in the afternoon is not true either༒. I think that we can do better.

"But unfortunatꩵely the problem is always the same.

"In acceleration, when we open the throttle, we 🌸s💜pin too much and we are not able to put enough power on the ground so we lose in acceleration.

"At the same 🌊time also we use the rear tyre, too much, sဣo it becomes also difficult to ride the bike.

"But more-or-less the problem is that. So tomorrow we try to follow another way, try to make the best and 𒈔we see our pe💎rformance."

Whatever Rossi and🔯 his crew try tomorrow, it will be very much a sticking plaster rathe🌱r than a miracle cure.

"It's a difficult situation because for me we have this [electronic/acceleration] problem since August 2017ౠ. And I've said about it a 🦄lot of times.

"Bꦉut sincerely at this moment, even if it's July 2018, we don't try nothing. More-or-less we are like las💞t year.

"So we have to be optimistic ꦍand hope that we can try something. 

"Because fo🦋r me personally - and I said a lot of times to Yamaha - ♐the problem is very clear."

Team-mate Maverick Vinales, sixth fastest and the top Yamaha on Friday, agreed with Rossi's assessment: "Right now our bike has a good package, a goo🤡d base set-up, but the electronics li😼mit us a lot. So we need to work hard on that."

After trying some 'small ideas' with no succe🎶ss at the Barcelona test, Rossi and Vinales are hoping to receive updates from Ya꧃maha to directly address th🦹e acceleration issue during the Brno official test, in August.

All MotoGP competitors use the same ECU system, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:but the&nbs🦂p;calibration of the e▨lectronics (the numbers) are programmed by each manufacturer to suit the specific 👍needs of their bike and riders.

Rossi and Yamaha have not won a race in over aꦇ year, but the Doctor remains second in the world championship standings, albeit 41-pꦗoints from Marc Marquez.

Vinales is si💖x points behind his team-mate, in third overall.
