Ducati, Pecco Bagnaia lies down again: Tardozzi on his knees

Pecco Bagnaia fell for the second consecutive Grand Prix

Bitterness at Ducati’s home for Pecco Bagnaia’s second consecutive crash: the Piedmontese rider, who was leading in front of everyone at the Grand Prix of the Americas in Austin, slid to the ground in Turn 3, fortunately without consequences, and must now deal with his second zero of the season.

No drama for the MotoGp world champion but a clear missed opportunity: the Ducatista’s mistake, which traces those of last season, allowed Marco Bezzecchi to maintain the leadership of the rainbow standings with an 11-point lead over Pecco.

After the crash Bagnaia blatantly lashed out at himself, and even in the pits there was discouragement with team manager Davide Tardozzi throwing himself to his knees on the ground after his top rider’s new mistake.
