Francesco Bagnaia arrived in MotoGP crowned with his title acquired in Moto2. With a good Ducati contract and an apprenticeship on the GP18 at Pramac, the Italian first attracted favorable attention during the Sepang tests in the off-season. A flash in the pan for the resident of the VR46 Academy dear to Valentino Rossi, who, since then, has been struggling with a Desmosedici that he already wants to forget. With seven Grands Prix remaining this season, he is thinking strongly about his future GP20…
The Moto2 World Champion, Francis Bagnaia, is having a mixed first season in MotoGP. The Italian crashed unusually and found himself, after 12 races, only in 15th position in the drivers' championship. Worse, bagnaia is only the third best beginner, behind Fabio Quartararo (Petronas–Yamaha) and Joan mir (Suzuki).
A situation which even requires Ducati to remember that he has this young Italian talent in his team while all the attention is focused on a fabio quartararo which eclipses it. In 2020, bagnaia should make a significant leap, as it will receive a state-of-the-art Desmosedici from Ducati. This year, the beginner has to make do with the previous year's machine and therefore often has difficulty finding the right references.
« I look at the data of all Ducati riders, but it's difficult because they use other bikes. There are some differences in the data records, it's best to use the previous year's data, but then we'll look at what they do with the new bike »Comments bagnaia.
In 2020, within the Pramac team, he will have the same machine as his teammate Jack Miller : " he's a good guy and a very fast rider, it will be interesting to push harder with an identical bike. I will have the same hardware as the factory drivers. This is very interesting, because I will be able to look at their data » ends a Pecco Bagnaia already impatient.
