MotoGP Ducati: the Red Bull Ring gave wings to Dovizioso!

Andrea Dovizioso arrives at the Silverstone track crowned with his victory at the last Grand Prix in Austria. A success acquired in style, in a final turn where he threw all his strength against Marc Márquez who had dominated him on the clock throughout the weekend in Styria. An achievement on the Red Bull Ring which gave him wings, the proof…

If, in Austria, Davide Tardozzi expressed his happiness at seeing his pilot triumph over Marc Marquez, the winner Andrea Dovizioso continues to be fueled by inner joy. Before starting the twelfth round of the season, in Grande Bretagne, he indeed comments: “ This victory gives us, I think, a lot of energy for the future. Winning is always important but winning like that when we didn't have better speed than Márquez... We worked well for the race and with the way we took the victory, I think it's very positive for me and for Ducati ».

DesmoDovi adds: " this will give us energy for the rest of the season and for development. Energy makes the difference and the more energy the better ". Despite the victory, Dovizioso remains 58 points behind Márquez in the title race. But there are still 200 points up for grabs in the remaining eight races. In fact, the championship is mathematically not over… “ It's open because there are a lot of races " said Dovizioso. " This race, on the one hand, does not change the future, because Marc has shown his potential in many races and he is so competitive, more than last year. So I expect him to be strong on every track. I think it will be very, very difficult ».

However… " But we are working on developing the bike, and in Austria we won the race after working hard to try to improve the bike, and we are constantly working on that. So we never know what you can find, and material will come in the future, so I want to keep that hope alive, because it's normal, it has to be like that ».

The teammate of Petrucci finished : " but fighting Marc right now, if you think about it realistically, it's very difficult, but that doesn't change our approach. It is this: we must improve, because our performance is not enough to beat him ».
