Jack Miller: “ the fight for the world title is more and more open »
On his race in Buriram, he recalls that it was not easy given the conditions marked by the rain: “ with these conditions, the race seemed very long to me and in addition to managing my pace, I also had to be very careful not to make any mistakes he says.

I wanted to try him on the last lap, but I made a little mistake with four corners to go and he was really strong in the last sector ».

In addition, Pecco is only 2 points behind the leader of the ranking and the fight for the world title is more and more open. It was a very good day overall for the whole team ».

And not least… “ The next race is at home for me in a few weeks, and I have my wedding next weekend. I was asked if, for this weekend, I was more nervous about my wedding than the race. I would say the wedding will be easy because Ruby organized everything! No pressure for me, I just have to show up and behave…And then it will be my home race, for the first time in three years. There's a lot to look forward to ". There is no doubt that victory will then be his priority, Pecco Bagnaia and championship or not.
