Gigi Dall’Igna stressed that, although Pecco Bagnaia managed to conquer a precious podium in the last weekend at Spain’s MotoGP, there are still aspects in which Ducati has to improve to better support his flagship pilot.
Despite third place, Bagnaia disappointed expectations, especially considering that a better performance was expected from him, like the one he has always shown on past Sundays compared to Saturday. Dall’Igna showed that, despite having started with determination and determination, Pecco missed that “sharpness” necessary to compete at the highest levels, a quality that everyone expected from the champion. This prevented Bagnaia from fighting for the victory.
In the meantime, Alex Marquez has obtained a spectacular victory in Jerez, overcoming Bagnaia and taking the head of the championship. This success allowed Ducati to equalize Honda’s record with 22 consecutive victories, a historical goal that Dall’Igna celebrated, also praising Marquez’s quality and constancy this season.
Despite the successes, Dall’Igna stressed that Ducati must continue to improve to better support Bagnaia, which is now 20 points away from the top of the championship, with Alex Marquez in the lead. The team is focused on the preparation for the next appointment at the MotoGP of Le Mans, hoping that Bagnaia can finally turn on his season.
