Another big year for the Aussie . He started 2023 – his first aboard KTM ’ s RC16 – brilliantly , only to fall into a lull midseason . Miller knows he must come out swinging in 2024 with Acosta waiting in the wings . Having enlisted the help of Red Bull Athlete Performance Centre to work on fitness over the winter months , he ’ s in better physical condition than ever even if he fractured the scaphoid bone in his wrist back in December . It ’ s been a tough year for the 29- year old so far . Knowing that he ’ s leaving KTM at the end of the year , he must fight back from recent bad luck to get toward the podium places .
