P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Jack Miller’s first season as a factory KTM rider had all the right results, just not necessarily in the right order. And that should concern him with a litany of riders likely circling his ride for 2025
his previous performance. While he did achieve some podium finishes and front-row starts, the overall progression wasn’t as steep as he had hoped for. However, he did show promising adaptability early on with impressive performances at Portimao and Jerez. In contrast, his teammates Zarco and Petrucci struggled to find the same comfort and speed on the KTM RC16. Miller’s season hit a plateau in the middle, with some mistakes and a need to work on corner speed. The introduction of KTM’s carbon chassis improved grip but didn’t fully restore Miller’s earlier performance levels. Overall, it was a fairly healthy first season considering the switch from Ducati to KTM.
