Like his team-mate Bagnaia, Jack Miller also fell in the second free practice session at Le Mans. “At Turn 7 I asked too much from the front and fell. I tried to save myself but I couldn’t, ”said the Australian. In contrast to Pecco, however, he managed to get a place in Q2 thanks to a 7th time.
The Jerez winner was not entirely satisfied with the day: “I struggled to be constant because of the wind“he said.” In the end I improved, but we still have to work on the setup. We are not far. “
Jack is calm and after breaking the ice ten days ago in Spain, he is approaching this race with more motivation.
” I feel less stress than in Jerez,” he has confirmed. “Also because it was a track that I always struggled on, while here and then in Mugello and Barcelona I just think about having fun. “
It’s a term Miller likes to use.
“I’ve been working mentally for the past few months,” he continued. “Not with a sports psychologist, because that’s not what I need, but on me, also thanks to my family and Aki Ajo (ed. His manager). I understand that I always have to remember that I’m the type of guy who loves to ride horses and that luckily it’s my job. I do what I love so I have to have fun. That’s the most important. “
At the moment he does, and friendly clues might help him. Including the Red Bull Ring, on which, as announced today, two races will be held.
“I’d rather have had six weeks vacation,” Miller said jokingly. “Obviously every Ducati rider is happy, but let’s not forget that KTM won the second GP last year. Actually, this circuit scares me. I don’t know what work they did, but last season’s accidents were shocking. I don’t think they’ll happen again, but I think we should be able to brake the bikes before corner two. A chicane would be the best solution.”
