It was a relieved Scott Redding who began his WSBK round on the new track for the Navarra championship. It must be said that he now knows what his future will hold and it will be available in 2022 under the colors of BMW. He thus responded to the doubts that Ducati openly expressed towards him by seeking to replace him on the transfer market with, in particular, Bautista who would have been taken over after two years spent at Honda. The Englishman says a word about all that...
Scott Redding no more doubts but prospects for 2022 and they will have the outlines of the factory BMW in WSBK. A challenge for the Briton and future groom who recalls a technical fact which is not insignificant… “I have never driven a four-cylinder in-line before. I've only ever ridden V4 bikes. I can’t wait to see how it goes.” And for Bautista who went from the Ducati V4 to the Honda inline four, we can't say it's joy...
Redding jousts: “ there is the right time for everything. The team was great, but some things weren't going in the right direction » ; So much for the frankness that characterizes him: “ BMW was the first manufacturer to want to sign me for the World Superbike Championship. I am very happy that we were able to reach this agreement. It was a very difficult decision for me as I really enjoyed my time with Ducati », also admits Redding.
Redding: I still have work to do for Ducati
« I'm looking forward to this career change. It will be exciting because the project is younger. They're probably burning a little harder to succeed because that hasn't been the case in a while ". Redding is already watching his next M1000RR : “ this year I thought they took a step forward with both drivers. I think it's time for a change ».
Then he finishes: “ I still have work to do for Ducati. And the people at Ducati are there to support me. Nothing has changed, they want to win as much as I do. And it will stay like this until the end of the season. Thursday there was news about my future, and since Friday, it's all about Ducati ».
