Alex Rins, entering his second season with Yamaha, says the Japanes🌃e marque will have a new engine, chassis, swingarm and fairing among other things to try this week at the Sepang shakedown and official test.

“It’s so difficult to say to you that we are g🅺oing to fight for the victory from the first race, because it’s not true,” he told wuqian0821.com.

“Right now, we have the potential to improve the bike. Yamaha worked really hard this 𓄧winter.

“S🌠o, I’m really excited tomorrow to jump on the bike for day two of😼 the shakedown.

“They worked really hard. They’ve brought engine, chassis, swingarm, fairing, many items - all new.🅷 So, I’m quite impressed.

“We will do the back-to-back [in testing]. We will start with the standard bike that we fin൩ished with in Montmelo, but already with the new chassis that we tried at the test.

“So, that was our base bike. From that we will work on a new engineꩵ, new electronics, another new chassis. So, quite a🥃 busy winter it will be.”

Rins underwent surgery in December to have the leg he badly broke in 2023 evaluated, though says he is “feeling perfect” despite 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:attending Yamaha’s launch with a crutch.

“I make a surgery 🔯this D⛄ecember, to check how everything was,” he said.

“The surgery was to see how the bone was recovering. They open, I🅷 had a little bit of bone because the𝕴 tibia was not 100% healed.

“But, honestly, now it’s two ꦏmonths and I’m feeling perfect, super good.

“Hone🐭stly same as before the surgery because before the surgery I was good enough.

“So, now I am having this [crutch] to remove a little bit of weight from the leg because with all the metal I have inside - you remem൲ber I was working a little bit not perfect - so, this is because I have some pain in my ankle.

“I still have all the metal, so fo✅r this reason I have t♐his [crutch].

“But it🥃’s not a problem t🎐o ride on the bike. I did a really good pre-season at home, training, mental [preparation] also. I did four, five days on the R1 at Jerez and Almeria.”
