Carlo Pernat is worried. His subject of concern is the relationship between Andrea Dovizioso and Ducati, the level of which betrays a tense atmosphere, far from the complicity that is often the driving force behind the best performances. However, the case of the accident suffered by the rider in a motocross race contested under authorization from his employer showed that while the situation may have been serious, it was not hopeless. Despite the injury and the operation, no complaints were made on either side. But there is nothing to do: Carlo Pernat is worried. And not just for Ducati...

« I don't like the way the negotiations between Ducati and Dovizioso are going. It's proof that they don't trust him much. ». Charles Pernat does not beat around the bush and insists on his theory of the mistrust reigning between the manufacturer and its driver. Better, if he had been in office at Borgo Panigale as he was in the last century at Aprilia, he would have acted in a much more authoritarian manner...

“I would have locked myself in with him and he wouldn’t have left until he signed”

« First they contacted everyone: Márquez, Viñales and Quartararo, and now they want to renew it according to their interests. This story leaves a bitter taste in my mouth ". For the Italian, the management with Forli has not been done well from the start: “ I would have locked myself in a room with him and he would not have left until he signed.

All that remains is to look at each other like earthenware dogs, Ducati pull the chestnuts from the fire… “ Now for Andrea there is no more possibility of going to KTM, and Lorenzo is on the lookout ". The name is dropped, and it is for a good reason: to Feathered, Lorenzo is " a valid alternative, since it will not need to adapt to the Desmosedici…  Although I don't know if he will accept a lower contract, around 2 million per season ».

« Lorenzo looked at himself in the mirror, he decided to enter the game and Dall'Igna is eager to accept his bet " finished Feathered who also has a word on management KTM... " I think they are very confused… they let Pol Espargaró out of their hands. They made a lot of bad decisions from a management perspective. " Them too ? At the very least, they recovered Danilo Petrucci, left by… Ducati.
