Ducati: Jorge Martin-Pecco Bagnaia, fiery back-and-forth

The MotoGp title fight between Jorge Martin and Pecco Bagnaia is heating up. The Ducati Pramac team centaur admitted to putting pressure on the world champion by getting in his wake, and succeeding by qualifying in Q2 at the expense of the unnerved Piedmontese.

"These days we tried to come up with something to put pressure on Pecco. I flanked him on the track thinking he was going strong, but on Saturday he will quietly go into Q2".

"It's been a very positive day, the track è fantastic and I am ready for the battle: we found the right solutions"

Pecco Bagnaia, on the other hand, responded sharply to the provocation: "Jorge Martin should focus on his work. I think he has to do his, he has to win both races, he better think about his job".

"It's been a complicated day, what we usually manage to solve today we didn't manage. We struggled more than expected. We already know where to work, I lose half a second in the corners, I am sure we will make a big step forward".
