The words of Pecco Bagnaia ahead of the Qatar Gp

.

During the press conference for the presentation of the Qatar GP, Ducati centaur Pecco Bagnaia è expressed himself bluntly about the rainbow fight with Jorge Martin, which I see him ahead by 14 lengths.

"I honestly do not consider this weekend as a possible match point for the championship. I would have to win 23 points more than Jorge to win, so I don’t think it’s realistic the way he’s going right now to close the books here. I think it’s more important to think about the track and deal with the maximum one session at a time, as we did in Sepang and be competitive at all times. In Malaysia I saw that the time attack è returned, the bike è ideal for this track, so I am confident. Lusail è a track that I particularly like, it has a new asphalt with more grip and the Ducatis have always been fast, apart from last year, in which I struggled" debuted the centaur from Piedmont.

"At the moment I have to reason about the 14 points that separate us. Better to stay calm and focused and do the best we can. Enea in Sepang did great things and I am convinced that he will be in the game here as well. Team games are almost impossible in MotoGp, so if he hasà way to win he will be able to play all his cards, as I have already told the team. For the rest, we will see what we can do" continued the number 1.

"I live this as a normal race weekend. I know that pressure canò come at any moment. I believe that to become champion I have to be in front: not è very different the pressure here than the one felt last year in Valencia" commented Pecco Bagnaia.
