The winter break is now in effect in MotoGP, which means that riders and machines no longer have the right to be present on a circuit. But actors can still get agitated behind the scenes. And it is even unavoidable since we are entering a period where negotiations for the 2021 and 2022 seasons will be launched. We can even say that the first milestones have been laid so that this monitoring is a duty. For Ducati, Davide Tardozzi sends out the messages. The proof…

Who will be where in 2021 in the Grand Prix? A question that may seem premature when 2019 is not even over yet. And yet, it begins to torment the protagonists in the paddock. We must make a date with strong messages and signs that attract attention. Davide Tardozzi from Ducati has the latitude to indulge in the exercise and its latest outing shows that it is time to seriously consider succession.

The Italian first begins with the obvious: “ Marc opened a new era of driving ". From there, you have to find someone who can counter him. “ Quartararo follows him » states thus Tardozzi who continues: “ and you know what, although Álex Rins doesn't seem that aggressive on the bike, he is. I think we also have a driver like Jack Miller, and when he finds his own way, he will take another step and soon be among the best. I have high expectations from Jack next year »

A consideration that will not leave you indifferent Danilo Petrucci… Especially that Tardozzi insists about the Australian: “ Jack Miller took a small step mid-season. Now I see him more focused on the important things, whereas before he was focused on having fun. He thinks more and he has become more professional, so I think he is very close to taking the next step. In the Pramac team we still have riders who are the future of Ducati. »

We will recall that within this team there are also Francesco Bagnaia. Ducati, finally, has another ally in MotoGP with Avintia, a structure that will join Johann zarco next year.
