Marco Bezzecchi suffered the domination of the Ajo riders in a Moto2 season where he was expected to assert himself, and thus convince of a possible promotion to MotoGP. A plan built on the solid foundation of his first victories in Moto2 last year, as well as his five other podiums. In 2021, he had to play for the title. But there you have it, it is only to highlight the incredible duo formed under the colors of KTM which thus improves its sector. But on the Tavullia side, we have its academy where solidarity is in full swing. As Pecco Bagnaia shows…
Pecco Bagnaia is like Morbidely a pure product of the academy VR46 with a Moto2 world title in his pocket as a key to entering MotoGP. This is also almost the case for Luca marini, who played in the top three last year, but the latter has other arguments to put forward… For Bezzecchi, it would be fashionable to have the crown but the affair already seems to be off to a bad start. However, with 128 points scored and four podiums, he is not unworthy, in third place in the provisional general classification.
The dominant idea, however, is that we expected better, which is never good for a climb in MotoGP. A trajectory that will take Remy gardner, current leader in the standings, with a KTM RC16 in Tech3 colors, and Fabio Di Giannantonio who was assured of his fate as soon as he signed with the Gresini team last year. During this time, Raul Fernandez is coveted because of a career that makes you forget that he is only a rookie, as well as Joe Roberts, quoted from Aprilia.
All that to say that Bezzecchi risks being left behind. But fortunately, the academy is there to put him back in the game. A solidarity that Pecco Bagnaia illustrates with these last words: “IHe thinks that this year the level of Moto2 is very high. Bezzecchi does a very good job, but it is clear that Ajo has something more in terms of driver and package" , said bagnaia, who won the 2 Moto2018 title for VR46 before moving to MotoGP.
Bezzecchi's MotoGP future depends on Rossi's
« If we watch the races, it is clear that Marco is doing his best. He gives his all from the start, every time. I think he does a very good job. This year, he is better prepared to arrive in MotoGP. But for now, the Ajo team has found something that allows the drivers to always be in front » adds the Italian on crash.net.
The fate of Bezzecchi is linked to that of his mentor Valentino Rossi. If the latter retires, he is expected to be the teammate of Luca Marini, provided that it pleases the Saudis. If they push the Doctor to be his half-brother's teammate, then Bezzecchi will present his candidacy for Yamaha Petronas… Where he will be one candidate among others, from the Petronas sector and WSBK.
