Jorge Martin caresses with his first MotoGP world champion title at his fingertips. There are 24 points far from Pecco Bagnaia with the Barcelona Grand Prix as the last event of the season. And from Ducati they praise the Madrilenian, who will go to Aprilia in winter.
Davide Tardozzi, The Ducati boss admitted that Martín’s management was better: “Hats off to Jorge, who managed the championship better than us. And Pecco also showed that he is very fast and that he is a champion.
Here is what is written in “AS”: “Jorge and Pecco put on an incredible show and they made us understand that they were two champions. Whoever wins the title will absolutely deserve it. At the moment, these two drivers are raising their level and that of this sport. “We will see what happens in Barcelona, where I hope we can pay tribute to Valencia with another great race, like Sepang, to dedicate to the people who suffer so much in Valencia.”
Saturdays were Pecco’s big problem, in the sprints: “He made too many mistakes this year, with too many crashes in the race. Seven crashes in a race are too many, even if he was able to win ten races out of 19 on a Sunday, which is scandalous, and that puts him 24 points behind Jorge…”.
“The goal is to take the live championship as far as possible, to try to keep it open until Sunday in Barcelona. We will have to score enough points in the sprint box for everything to be decided on Sunday, because in a championship like this, anything can happen. The goal in Barcelona will once again be to win both races, as was the case at Sepang, but that cannot be due to Saturday’s crash in the sprint,” Tardozzi said ahead of the championship’s final test.
