Jack Miller arrives in France determined to reclaim his top ten position
Jack Miller confident ahead of Le Mans MotoGP
Jack Miller heads to this weekend’s French Grand Prix at Le Mans determined to get his 2017 championship campaign back on track.
Both Jack Miller and his Estrella Galicia 0,0 Marc VDS teammate Tito Rabat crashed out of the Spanish Grand Prix in Jerez two weeks ago.
Miller and Rabat arrive in Le Mans with confidence renewed after a successful post race test at the Jerez circuit, which was followed by a productive one-day wet test with Michelin in Valencia.
Miller was the innocent victim in Alvaro Bautista’s crash in Jerez, but it saw the Australian drop out of the top ten in the championship standings for the first time this season.
Miller arrives in France determined to reclaim his top ten position with a good result at the resurfaced Le Mans circuit.
Jack Miller
“I’m feeling really positive, as we had good pace in Jerez before I was taken out of the race. We also found a few more things during the post race test on Monday, which was good for us. We learnt a lot during the wet test with Michelin at Valencia that could help us this weekend at Le Mans, where the weather is typically unpredictable this early in the year. Since then I’ve been able to do some solid training at home and I’m looking forward to the weekend ahead in France where, hopefully, we can rediscover our pace from Jerez.”
