MotoGP, Silverstone J2, Pecco Bagnaia (Ducati/Q3-S6) is in turmoil: "I would like to talk to him and understand" comments Gigi Dall'Igna

Three-time world champion Pecco Bagnaia is going through one of the most challenging moments of his career since his rise to the top of MotoGP. At Silverstone, the venue for the 2025 British Grand Prix, the factory Ducati rider suffered another setback. Struggling from the start of free practice, he never found his rhythm, plagued by a blatant lack of traction and excessive tire wear.

The observation is brutal. While pilots like Alex Marquez with the GP24 and his teammate in GP25 Marc Marquez impose their pace and dominate the first phases of the race, bagnaia seems unable to compete. It's a little difficult to understand the situation. " admits Pecco with a tone tinged with frustration. At the time, because in the end we were doing well, we tried to ride as best we could, but after five laps, I completely destroy the rear tire, even though I have always been one of the best in management »

What makes the situation even more worrying is the lack of technical response from the Italian manufacturer. The GP25 is not working as we want it to ", Explain bagnaia. " We are trying to find out how to change this situation, because it is not easyWe still have a lot of movement and I can't arrive with the brakes on. »

I finished completely without rear tires, and it's hard. It was one of the worst times of the year in terms of feelings and expectations »

The picture is bleak. Pecco admits to having had long discussions with his team and the engineers, without any notable progress. Marc also had a rather long meeting, because in the end the situation was difficult to understand. »

The most overwhelming moment for bagnaia perhaps there remains this moment in the race where Johann zarco, on his Honda, surpassed it " when exiting a bend, at a point where you are fully on the accelerator, and I had no more traction. » A sporting humiliation that the Italian champion analyses coldly: " Ultimately, this is something we need to look at more closely. »

The season is still long, but doubt is seriously setting in in the official team box Ducati. Pecco is looking for a trigger… but time is running out. Because Gigi Dall'Igna commented after the Sprint of Silverstone : " I haven't spoken to Pecco yet, honestly. I don't know what happened. Before commenting I would like to talk to him and understand what happened because this morning he was quite satisfied with the package ". Atmosphere …
