MotoGP rider Jack Miller is looking to turn things around at the Suzuka 8 Hours he's competing in. Admitting that Friday's qualifying "didn't go as I wanted," he signaled his determination to stage a turnaround in the race.
Even if qualifying doesn't go your way, the 8 Hours is eight hours long. What makes a GP rider like Miller dangerous is his pacing and instinct for when to strike in the race itself. Cut the waste from corner entry to exit and just tick off consistent laps, and a bad qualifying spot flips easily. I'm betting on Miller in the race.
