Ducati, Pecco Bagnaia slams critics

Pecco Bagnaia: “I don’t have to prove to them that I’m fast, but to myself and the people who work with me.”

Ducati centaur Pecco Bagnaia in an interview with Rai2 spoke about his difficult relationship with social media: “I don’t read comments anymore, I don’t have to prove to them that I’m fast, but to myself and the people who work with me. Because of social even journalists try to make controversy and mess, all things that are not needed. In Italy you haven’t won a title since 2009. With social you feel this more.”

The Piedmontese driver expressed his esteem for Fabio Quartararo: “There is great respect between us, which is the most important thing and we have known each other for many years. He has been really consistent, unlike other years when he has had more ups and downs, like in 2020, when he was leading but then lost. This year he has managed to have a lot of consistency, although I think his bike is inferior to ours. It’s like starting from scratch with three races to go.”
