74 points at stake, only 17 difference between Jorge Martin And Pecco Bagnaia and the World Cup will be decided in the last two races in Malaysia and Valencia.
This Thursday took place the press conference before the penultimate event and while the Madrilenian tried to show serenity, the Italian, more experienced at the moment, began with his psychological game.
The Ducati rider knows that the Pramac rider’s lead is considerable, so if he doesn’t make a mistake, he will most likely go with the “1” at Aprilia.
“I don’t notice much pressure NOW. It is true that Jorge is in a more comfortable situation, but when you are comfortable, the problems begin, because you have to go quickly, but without making mistakes and He knows perfectly well that he cannot“Pecco told the press.
Indeed, Bagnaia put all the pressure on his rival by ensuring that “I can’t make mistakes.”
“We are at a point in the World Cup where I can risk a little more than Jorge. Jorge needs to be a little calmerbecause there is more difference in the World Cup”, added the current champion in a blatant attempt to distract Martín. The question is whether he succeeded.
