Davide Tardozzi is right to point out that the last Malaysian Grand Prix once again confirmed Ducati's supremacy in MotoGP. With a triple victory and records broken at every turn, the Italian brand has come closer to a new double of constructors' and riders' titles.

Ducati is one step away from handing over the MotoGP throne to its satellite team Pramac, as the season reaches its peak. During the Malaysian Grand Prix, the Borgo Panigale brand once again proved its dominance with a resounding victory for Pecco Bagnaia, followed by Jorge Martin and Enea Bastianini. This race marked the 105ème Ducati's victory in the premier class, bringing the 18 the number of victories this season, a new record, and 16 the number of consecutive wins. Impressive figures that competitors will find hard to ignore, even with the upcoming regulatory changes.
Despite this new triumphant march, the celebration of the MotoGP riders' title will have to wait until the last round in Barcelona, following the cancellation of the race in Valencia due to the tragic events in the area. Montmelò is about to become the scene of the final chapter of this thrilling season, where bagnaia et Martin faced each other in a ballet of overtaking during the Malaysian Grand Prix, offering a quality show to spectators.
