Title leader 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jorge Martin’s pair of qualifying accidents came back to haunt him in Sunday’s Americas MotoGP at COTA.

While starting six𒉰th on the grid was surmountable, as he had proven with a podium in the Sprint, the Pramac Ducati rider paid the price for lost practice time on the medium rear tyre.

In a race that saw th🔥e top two of Maverick Vinales and Pedro Acosta run the harder rubber, Martin spent the closing stages battling fellow GP24 rider Enea Bastianini to be the best of the ‘softs♛’ in third.

Bastianini made his move witജh just over two laps to go,ꦇ meaning Martin’s perfect five-race run of podium finishes this season came to an end.

“I knew from yesterday that it would b꧂e a difficult race, the rivals were really strong,” Martin said.

“The two crashes I had [in qualifying] gave more consequences in today's race because I didn’t have the chance to try the medium c♏ompound, so I went into the raceꦫ with the one I know better: the soft.

“I made a mistakꦕe which allowed my rivals to reduce the gap from myself.

ꦆ“At that point, it was too risky to push, so it's fine to get a fourth posit🦄ion on a track quite complicated for me, and it is not a drama to miss out on the podium for the first time this season!”

Martin will return to Europe leading the world championsh𝄹⛦ip standings by 21 points from Bastianini, with COTA winner Vinales 24-points from the top.
