After three Grands Prix contested this season, Andrea Dovizioso leads the MotoGP championship before embarking on the daunting European campaign. A part of the calendar that is considered the justice of the peace for all versions of the Grand Prix seasons. Never before has the Ducati rider found himself in such a favorable position at this stage of hostilities, so much so that, despite his legendary prudence, this time he indulges in an optimistic prognosis for his colors regarding the course of events...
After the first three races, the leader of the general classification is a Andrea Dovizioso whose primary quality is to always keep your feet on the ground. Traveling to Rome where he was the distinguished guest at the opening of a Ducati Store, he commented: “ every year we start from scratch. Last year, it happened like this before the stage in Spain. I learned to live race after race. But I admit it: the sensations are better than a year ago, the sensations with the bike have progressed. We are stronger, we can be more consistent ».
The next race will take place at the Jerez circuit on Sunday May 5, and the Forlì native said: “ In recent years this track has been a nightmare for me. But now I have changed. Psychologically, I have done enormous work, greater than physical work ". The rivalry on the track is strong and this year there seems to be even more competition for the title. On the naysayers, Dovi says: “ Rins and Suzuki have grown up. I'm not even talking about Márquez. With Marc, you always have to be careful because he is very strong. And then, he knows how to get on the podium even on bad days. Valentino Rossi? It's admirable to do what he does ».
The championship is still long, but this year, Ducati started the season really well, including in a Superbike dominated by Alvaro Bautista on the Panigale V4 R.
