The 25-year-old says he doesn't understand why he tends to perform well in the practice sessions and he struggles in the race.
"It's quite frustrating that I can practice so good, and then arrive to the race and the bike is not working," he said.
"So, I don't know. Now we have [the] test, more of the same as usual: super grip in the test, everything works well and then in the race I'll have the same problem."
Yahama are sitting at the top of Manufacturers' Championship standings with 113 points.
Ducati and KTM are placed second and third with 107 and 88 points respectively on the standings.
