Carlo Pernat shared his analysis of the Argentine Grand Prix, highlighting Pecco Bagnaia's growing struggles in the face of the overwhelming dominance of the Marquez brothers. While Marc and Alex Marquez once again secured a one-two finish, Bagnaia was left off the podium, finishing behind Franco Morbidelli. For Pernat, this situation raises questions about Bagnaia's future and Ducati's ability to manage this internal rivalry.
Feathered was full of praise for Marc Marquez, which he describes as " galactic ", and for Alex, which he considers as " stellar ". " These are the two brothers who monopolize MotoGP, just like Ducati: five first places, five Ducati. I think that things have changed very little since last year, despite the various concessions, despite the money invested by Aprilia, Yamaha and Honda, and unfortunately not by KTM due to the financial situation »
Marc Marquez, back to his best after years of injuries, seems untouchable. He really recovered, he became the Marquez of before, he worked hard on his physique, and If you put a phenomenon like Marc on the best bike, I think there can be no other result.. As you have noticed, Marc no longer falls; he rides very cleanly. In my opinion, I repeat, he has worked hard on his physique, on his shoulder, on his accidents, and now, it is very difficult, if not impossible, to truly beat him »
To Pecco Bagnaia, double world champion, the situation is becoming more and more complicated. Pecco feels like the number one at Ducati, and he's right. He sees his status eroding day by day, and I hope he'll get back on track, because he's very strong; He won two MotoGP world championship titles, and it's no coincidence » Feathered recognizes that bagnaia is perhaps going through the most difficult period of his career.
« Pecco Bagnaia is often at his best when no one is expecting him anymore – a virtue of great champions »
The Italian manager emphasizes that the management of this internal rivalry at Ducati will be crucial. It will not be easy for Ducati to manage this situation, from Tardozzi to Gigi » bagnaia, used to being the team leader, now has to deal with a teammate in great shape and satellite drivers who are beating him.
Despite a deficit of 31 points in the championship after only two races, Feathered estimate that bagnaia still has a chance to make up for it. The season is still long, with only two of the 22 race weekends behind us. His 31-point deficit in the championship is already considerable, but it can certainly still be made up.. And Bagnaia is often at his best when no one is expecting him anymore – a virtue of great champions. »
The reaction of Pecco Bagnaia is highly anticipated. If he manages to overcome this difficult period and compete with the Marquez, he will strengthen his legend. On the other hand, if he fails, he risks being perceived as the pilot who profited from the misfortunes of Marc Marquez, but who was unable to resist its strong comeback.
For now, the ball is in the court of bagnaiaThe season is still young, and everything can change, but one thing is certain: the brothers Marquez have redefined the hierarchy of MotoGP, and bagnaia must take on the challenge of his career to stay in the title race.
