After the podium in Styria, Jack Miller has to stop the race to the top of the MotoGP standings. At Misano he has to settle for eighth position behind Andrea Dovizioso and sees his teammate Pecco Bagnaia on the podium. In the upper echelon Franco Morbidelli, another VR46 Academy driver. A first and second place not by chance for the Australian of the Ducati Pramac team, which underlines the doublet of Luca Marini and Marco Bezzecchi in Moto2. “What to say, they are lucky to be able to shoot in Misano all year round. Unfortunately, I can’t go to Phillip Island“.
The forward betrayed Jack Miller after a few laps, the crashes made life in the GP20 even more difficult. “On Friday he had already pointed him out in the direction of the race. In order not to compromise the bike, I decided to go very low, in order to provide more stability and improve cornering.“.
The rear compound study
There was nothing he could do to prevent the wear on his tires, especially the front ones. “With seven laps to go I changed the map to handle the tires and in the end I had problems with the front end, especially in the left corners. Unfortunately, they were exhausted. I tried to do my best, even though it wasn’t the best race for us. So we will try to improve before next weekend.“.
Tuesday’s test could be used to study the best strategy to adopt at the next MotoGP event scheduled in San Marino. The choice of soft on the rear is not rewarding. “I’m usually one of the Ducati riders who uses the rear end the best, without being aggressive. adds Jack Miller. Unfortunately I chose the soft one, but it was not the right way. Compared to me, as well as to the other Ducati riders, Pecco is one of those who doesn’t open the throttle as much and maybe this helps him to better hold the tires.“.
