"Ità will be interesting to see what heà and ità will also be a good competition for him,” Bagnaia continued. “I think heà will ride the Ducati for the first time in the Valencia test. He will have to try many things, but our bike adapts to all riding styles".
On the possibilities of making a difference right away: "Next year he will have a very good bike, becauseé the GP23 è a very good bike. I don't know if he'll fight for the championship, but he'll be in the top 5".
