Michele Pirro

Michele Pirro, on the sidelines of the Superbike tests in Barcelona, ​​was full of praise for his observations made on the track, being particularly impressed by Toprak Razgatlioglu and the BMW team. A situation in the category reserved for motorcycles derived from the series which furiously reminds him of the rise of first cousins ​​KTM in MotoGP…

« Toprak and BMW, that’s something!“, exclaimed Michele Pirro on GP One. " It looks like KTM in their organization, a real MotoGP job. With two test pilots and an arsenal to test, not to mention the army of technicians and engineers, I was honestly amazed. I did not expect that, but their progress and competitiveness are undeniable. The M 1000 RR clearly has a promising future and I am convinced that it will soon play a leading role in the Championship."

Michele Pirro: “ Andrea Iannone has lost none of his splendor, his MotoGP style fits perfectly with the Panigale »

Michele Pirro also mentioned the return ofAndrea Iannone : " Andrea has lost none of his splendor, his MotoGP style fits perfectly with the Panigale. He knew how to highlight his potential and I bet in Barcelona he will be in the running for the lead again, despite tire wear which makes the circuit quite special."

As for Nicholas Bulega, the fastest of the tests, Pirro is also not stingy with compliments: “ Nicolò is on an excellent dynamic. Victorious in Australia, he proved this winter that he was constantly fast, whatever the situation. His driving style, more fluid than that of Bautista, suits the Panigale V4 perfectly.. The bike visibly adapts to several approaches, and he understood it well. » In short, for the Ducati test rider, the games are open in this 2024 WSBK season!
