Although 481 points are still about to be distributed in the 13 major awards that are missing, more and more uphill Pecco Bagnaia has not only the reconquest of the MotoGP title, but even the option of repeating the runner -up and less follow their problems of lack of feeling with the front train. He has already launched the 'SOS' to Ducati, who has been working to return that trust for months. But points are left in circuits where it was always strong as last week in Mugello and reaches Assen, a circuit where he is again unbeatized since 2022 and last year he signed the run of racing.
Exempted from their duties to the official press conference of the average day of the Netherlands GP, as well as his partner Marc Márquez, he has appeared in the Corrillo in the Media Center, where he approached with the Italian and international press especially what happened after Mugello's career when Marc Márquez and he were called to comment on the touch of curve 5 in the third round of the race, as the Gpone website collects.
The touch of Márquez and Bagnaia in the third round of Mugello
“We went to career address to talk about what happened because of the contact I had with Marc, on Vuelta 3, in curve 5, but nothing strange. It was only to understand the situation, what happened. For my part, I said that this was a clear race incident and that there was nothing to do about it. If we also started to punish this kind of thing, it will be difficult then because it was a normal contact. It was the first situation of fighting this season, because I was able to We had a small contact.
The commissioner panel is led from this year by the former MotoGP driver Neozyre, and former Pit Reporter of Dorna, Simon Crafar, A change that for Bagnaia has been a step forward compared to the controversial stage of the former champion Freddie Spencer. “I have always had a great relationship with Simon. In comparison with before, it seems that we can have a discussion before the decision. Before, you were there, you had the discussion, and it did not matter what happened, you received the sanction. So I think it is now much better. Simon is much more understanding, first compares and then judges.”
Green outbreaks in Mugello
After a start in which he has only lost points regarding the Márquez without being able to be competitive, he left Mugello something more optimistic, although again he gave to those of Cervera. “Mugello was difficult, but it was the first race in which I could, at least, fight. Then I had some problems in the last part of the race, but it is something that happened for bad luck. I was competitive in the first part; then, when the front train began to fall a little, I was not able to fight. But the rhythm was very similar to those in front. Obviously, I am not happy for the fourth place, but there are some aspects to consider and consider weekend.
Assen is another circuit in which he does not lose since 2022 in the GP race and last year he made full. Mo thinks of radical changes in the motorcycle. “We do not have to make any change in the motorcycle. We just need to work to take a great step forward in this situation, knowing that the conditions will be good except tomorrow morning, when rain is forecast. In Sachsenring, however, we will try to do something else.”
Ducati is being used thoroughly
And he pointed out how Ducati is helping him: “I have a hard time knowing what I can do some things, but I can't.
“I think we have taken a small step forward with the front, finding more stability, since it is the first time I do not have it. In Mugello I wanted to be in front, because until today I have not been and being behind it does everything much more difficult,” ditch.
