Andrea Dovizioso had little to say about a Teruel Grand Prix race that was hardly more exciting than the previous ones. Only thirteenth, he lost ten points in the general classification compared to last weekend on the same track in Aragon and slipped to fifth place in the championship. But it's a safe bet that at this rate, his final ranking will be even worse after the three remaining races...
Andrea Dovizioso started from the sixth row and after a hope of being able to seek a top 10, he had to resign himself to thirteenth place, stingy in points in the championship. But the official Ducati reminds us, we must forget it on this subject. Because he can't do anything with the equipment he has..." We tried something this morning, and the reason I was in a good position was because I had a new tire. In the race, the tire drop was huge for everyone, but when you drive by pushing to go back up, you consume more » declares the Italian.

« In each race, some drivers have a better feeling and achieve a better result, but you have to look at the classification. Pecco did something good, ditto Miller and Danilo. If anyone finds a way to do things, they're ahead. The choice of tires depends on how you ride. In the last two years we were able to use the soft tires because we could use them differently, we were fast and we used them differently " to analyse Dovizioso.
Not a word about Johann Zarco
« Now the situation is different, I don't know if it would have been different with the mediums, but I don't think the choice of tires would have changed anything. I don't like running like that, I don't like fighting for these positions »Adds Dovizioso which ends: “ It's hard to think of positive things right now. This championship is strange and winning is not everything, the important thing is to score points. We are all in the breach, the team, the bike and the rider ».
We will still recall that, in this Grand Prix this Teruel, there was a way to do well. This was demonstrated by a Johann zarco who did the job during qualifying to do the job in the race by bringing home a good fifth place. With a GP19…
